Question

Find the unit rate.
2 1/2 miles in 3/4 hour

Answer 1

Answer: 3.33 miles per hour

Explanation:

This is a fraction equal to

2.5 miles ÷ 0.75 hours

We want a unit rate where

1 is in the denominator,

so we divide top and bottom by 0.75

`(2.5 miles)/(0.75 hours)` ÷ 0.75

÷ 0.75

= 3.33 miles per hour
