Answer:

Explanation on ratio and rates.

Explanation:

So rates are when you compare two things. For example let's say there are 12 boys and 10 girls. The ratio would be 12:10 or 6:5. Rates is also comparing two things but in fraction format. For example if you drive 30 miles in 3 hours the rate would be 30/3. 10 miles per hour is a unit rate since it is 1 hour, 10/1. I hope this helps you, have a good day.
