D.hour60.86 miles/hour
What is 426 / 7 — put that into your calculator or Google.
Well, let's see. If you traveled 426 miles in 7 hours, we can find the unit rate by dividing 426 by 7. So, the unit rate would be 60.86 miles per hour. Or, as I like to call it, "going the distance at a speedy snail's pace." So the answer is D. hour60.86 miles/hour.
To find the unit rate for traveling 426 miles in 7 hours, we need to divide the distance by the time.
The unit rate is given by:
Unit rate = Distance ÷ Time
Thus, the unit rate for traveling 426 miles in 7 hours is:
Unit rate = 426 miles ÷ 7 hours
Calculating this, the unit rate is approximately 60.86 miles/hour.
Therefore, the correct answer is option D.
To find the unit rate in this situation, we need to divide the total distance traveled by the total time taken. The given information tells us that the distance traveled is 426 miles and the time taken is 7 hours.
So, to find the unit rate, we can divide the distance by the time:
Unit Rate = Distance/Time
Unit Rate = 426 miles / 7 hours
Using a calculator, we can find the value of this division:
Unit Rate ≈ 60.86 miles/hour
Therefore, the unit rate for this situation, rounded to the nearest hundredth, is approximately 60.86 miles/hour.
The correct answer is option D.
