A lake has 16 boats in 4 square miles. Determine the unit rate in boats per square mile. (1 point)
To determine the unit rate in boats per square mile, we need to divide the number of boats by the number of square miles.
Number of boats = 16
Number of square miles = 4
Unit rate = Number of boats / Number of square miles
= 16/4
= <<16/4=4>>4
Therefore, the unit rate in boats per square mile is 4.
