Question

Donald bought 2 game controllers at Gamestop for $36. Each one cost the same amount. What is the unit rate for a single controller? & Jake was offered the following amounts of an entire pizza: 0.6, 4/5, or 0.75. Jake really likes pizza and wants the largest amount of pizza he can get. Which of the amounts should he select?

Answer 1

See below ~

Explanation:

Question #1

• Donald bought 2 controllers for $36
• Unit rate = Amount / Number of controllers
• Unit rate = $36 / 2
• Unit rate = $18 per controller

Question #2

• 0.6, 4/5, 0.75
• We have to convert them all into either: fractions or decimals
• Let's go with decimals
• 0.6, 0.75 and 4/5
• 4/5 = 0.8
• 0.6 < 0.75 < 0.8
• Jake should select the 4/5 piece as it is the largest
