Convert the map scale to a unit rate. How many inches represent one mile? Show your work. Interpret the meaning of the unit rate
3/10 in = 7/8 miles PLEASE HURRY I NEED A GUUD GRADE
Step 1: Convert 3/10 in to a decimal: 3/10 = 0.3 in
Step 2: Convert 7/8 miles to a decimal: 7/8 = 0.875 miles
Step 3: Divide 0.3 in by 0.875 miles: 0.3 in / 0.875 miles = 0.34 in/mile
The unit rate is 0.34 inches per mile. This means that for every 1 mile, there are 0.34 inches on the map.
