For every 36 minutes of sprinting, Scarlett earned 12 dollars for charity. To find the unit rate of this, I would first need to structure the equation. In this case, I would use division, so my equation would be 36 รท 12 = 3. The final answer would be, for every 3 minutes, Scarlett earns $1. is this right? i will give 15 points:)

Answer:

$1 every 3 minutes

Explanation:

Cause every 36 minutes Scarlett earns $12 and if you divide 36 by 12 it will give 3 minutes which means she earns $1 per 3 minutes. You're right.
