If the number in the numerator of a unit rate is 1, it indicates that the quantity being measured remains the same as the denominator. In other words, the numerator represents a single unit of the quantity.
To give an example, let's consider the unit rate of miles per hour. If the numerator is 1, it means we are measuring the speed of something and expressing it as the number of miles it covers in 1 hour.
For instance, if a car is traveling at a speed of 60 miles per hour, we can calculate the equivalent unit rates by dividing the number of miles by different time periods. For example:
- 60 miles per 1 hour
- 30 miles per 0.5 hours
- 15 miles per 0.25 hours
- 120 miles per 2 hours
As long as the numerator stays as 1, we are comparing the number of miles the car travels to different units of time while maintaining the same ratio.
