A sloth moves as fast as it can 60 inches up a tree branch in 20 seconds. What is the sloth’s maximum speed as a unit rate in inches per second? please make it quick
To find the sloth's maximum speed as a unit rate, we need to divide the total distance traveled (60 inches) by the time taken (20 seconds).
Speed = Distance/Time
Therefore, the sloth's maximum speed is 60 inches / 20 seconds = 3 inches per second.
