To find the unit rate, you need to divide the given quantity by the corresponding unit of measurement.
For the first question:
To find the unit rate of 14 hours in 2 weeks, you divide the total hours (14) by the total weeks (2). So, the unit rate is 14 hours / 2 weeks = 7 hours/week.
For the second question:
To find the unit rate of 7 hours in 1 week, you divide the total hours (7) by the total weeks (1). Therefore, the unit rate is 7 hours / 1 week = 7 hours/week.
For the third question:
To find the unit rate of 36 pieces of candy for 6 children, you divide the total pieces of candy (36) by the total number of children (6). Thus, the unit rate is 36 pieces / 6 children = 6 pieces/child.
For the fourth question:
To find the unit rate of 6 pieces of candy for 1 child, you divide the total pieces of candy (6) by the total number of children (1). Thus, the unit rate is 6 pieces / 1 child = 6 pieces/child.
For the last question:
To find the unit rate of 8 teaspoons for 4 cups, you divide the total teaspoons (8) by the total cups (4). Hence, the unit rate is 8 teaspoons / 4 cups = 2 teaspoons/cup.
Right.
