Question

Penny reads 13 pages in 1/2 hour. What is the unit rate for pages per hour? For hours per page? How many hours per page

Answer 1

26

Explanation:

13 in 1/2 hour

13:1/2

26:1

Answer 2

13 pages : 1/2 hour Multiply both sides by 2

26 pages : 1 hour ------>> 26 pages/hr

Flip over 26 pages/hr ----->>> hr / 26 pages = 1 hr / 26 pages

Split up the fraction: (1/26) hr / page
