Answer:

48 inches

or

0.8 minutes

Explanation:

To find the unit rate of inches per hour, divide 144 by 3.

144÷3=48

You don't need to round because there are no decimals.

To find the time to braid 1 inch, first multiply 3 by 60 (because there are 60 minutes in 1 hour).

3×60=180

Then divide 144 by 180.

144÷180= 0.8

You don't need to round because there are no thousandths.
