Complete question :

A construction crew built 1/2 miles of road in 1/8 days. What is the unit rate in miles per day? Write your answer in simplest form.

Answer:

3 miles per day

Explanation:

Given that:

1/2 miles of road takes 1/8 days

Unit Rate in miles per day :

Miles of road built / number of days taken

1/2 miles ÷ 1/8 days

1/2 * 8/1

= (1*8) / (2*1)

= 8/2

= 4

Unit Rate = 4 miles per day
