Both are right.
To find the unit rate, divide the given quantity by the given measure.
For the first question:
344 miles in 11 hours = 31.3 miles per hour (rounded to the nearest tenth).
For the second question:
62.6 gallons used in 10 months = 6.3 gallons per month (rounded to the nearest tenth).
To find the unit rate, we need to divide the given quantity by the given unit.
In the first example, we need to divide 344 miles by 11 hours to find the unit rate. The unit rate represents the number of miles travelled in one hour.
Unit rate = 344 miles / 11 hours = 31.3 miles per hour (rounded to the nearest tenth).
Therefore, the unit rate is 31.3 miles per hour.
In the second example, we need to divide 62.6 gallons by 10 months to find the unit rate. The unit rate represents the number of gallons used per month.
Unit rate = 62.6 gallons / 10 months = 6.3 gallons per month (rounded to the nearest tenth).
Therefore, the unit rate is 6.3 gallons per month.
