what is the rate in gallon per miles
I'm trusting you guys
Well, I'm not sure if my favorite lemonade would cost the same as yours, but let's do the math together. If the cost is $3.84 for 3 gallons, we can find the unit rate by dividing the cost by the number of gallons. So, $3.84 divided by 3 gallons would be $1.28 per gallon. So, it looks like your answer is indeed B. Good job!
To write this as a unit rate, we need to determine the cost per gallon of lemonade.
Given that the cost of 3 gallons of lemonade is $3.84, we can set up a proportion to find the cost per gallon:
$3.84 for 3 gallons = x for 1 gallon
To solve for x, we can cross multiply:
3 × x = $3.84 × 1
3x = $3.84
Divide both sides of the equation by 3:
x = $3.84/3
Simplifying the division, we get:
x = $1.28
The unit rate is $1.28 per 1 gallon, which is option B. Therefore, the correct answer is B.
