Answer:

14.

JIm can solve 4/7 math problems in a minute. that is the unit rate. how did i get that? 7/7 = 1 and thats what we need for a unit rate, the number one. that means we have to divide 4 by 7 too. therefore, 4/7.

we aren't done. we multiply 4/7 * 25 to find out how many math problems jim can solve in 25 minutes.

about.. 14.29 and we need a whole number since you cant solve a decimal of a math problem so he can solve 14 math problems in 25 minutes.
