A 2-column table with 4 rows. Column 1 is labeled Number of Bouquets with entries 3, 6, 9, 12. Column 2 is labeled Price (dollars) with entries 9, 18, 27, 36.

The table shows the price for buying bouquets of flowers at a farmer’s market.

What is the unit rate?

Answer:

The unit rate is $3

Explanation:

The given table can be written as follows:

No. of Bouquets 3 6 9 12

Price 9 18 27 36

In order to find the unit price, the price will be divided by the units.

So,


Unit\ price = (Total\ price)/(Number\ of\ bouquets)

Taking a single pair from the table (Any pair of number of bouquets and price of those number of bouquets can be taken for this purpose)


Unit\ price = (9)/(3)

= 3

Hence,

The unit rate is $3
