A car travel 300 miles on 15 gallons of gas, what is the unit rate?
300 / 15 = _______ miles per gallon
45 is inncorrect
20
20
To find the unit rate, we need to determine how many miles the car can travel on one gallon of gas.
To do this, we divide the total miles traveled (300 miles) by the total amount of gas used (15 gallons):
Unit rate = Total miles / Total gallons
Unit rate = 300 miles / 15 gallons
Performing the division, we find:
Unit rate = 20 miles/gallon
Therefore, the unit rate is 20 miles per gallon.
