Oscar is training to compete in a cross country meet at his school. In a week he runs a total of 7 miles in 84 minutes. What is the unit rate of minutes per mile?
minutes per mile
To find the unit rate of minutes per mile, we divide the total number of minutes (84) by the total number of miles (7):
84 minutes / 7 miles = <<84/7=12>>12 minutes per mile
Therefore, the unit rate of minutes per mile for Oscar is 12 minutes per mile.
Valerie buys a new car. She can drive 288 miles on a full tank of gas. If her car holds 16 gallons of gasoline, what is the unit rate of miles per gallon?(1 point)
miles per gallon
To find the unit rate of miles per gallon, we divide the total number of miles (288) by the total number of gallons (16):
288 miles / 16 gallons = <<288/16=18>>18 miles per gallon
Therefore, the unit rate of miles per gallon for Valerie's car is 18 miles per gallon.
Liam decides to make a New Year's goal to read more books. One year later, he has read a total of 36 books. What is the unit rate of book per month that he read?(1 point)
books per month
To find the unit rate of books per month that Liam read, we need to know the total number of months during which he was reading. If we assume that Liam read the books over the course of 12 months (one year), we can calculate the unit rate as follows:
36 books / 12 months = 3 books per month
Therefore, the unit rate of books per month that Liam read is 3 books per month.
The grocery store is having a sale on apples. If you buy 8 pounds and it costs $16.00, what is the unit rate of price per pound?

$16.00 / 8 pounds = $2.00 per pound
Therefore, the unit rate of price per pound for the apples is $2.00 per pound.
