Part A: Use ratio language to describe the relationship of any two things you can think of.

Example: For every 5 minutes of jogging, I ran 500 yards.

Be creative and come up with your own idea.

Part B: Determine the unit rate in your example.

My example: For every 20 minutes i can read 7 pages

Part A: Another example can be “ For every 10 minutes, Mia ate 2 pieces of cake.”

Part B: 20 minutes for 7 pages equals about 2 minutes for 1 page

Ratio Language

First you need to know what this means... example "For every vote candidate A received, candidate B gets five votes." this would be shown as 1:5

The example here in the problem is 5 minutes for 500 yards as 5:500

__
For your example the 20 minutes and 7 pages, 20:7 pages your unit rate would be 2.85714286 minutes you read one page, or rounded to the tenths 2.86 minutes you read a page
