Question

A truck uses 17 gallons of gasoline to travel 442 miles. Write this as a rate.

I don't know how to find the rate?

Answer 1

Hmm -- You have four choices. You can add, subtract, multiply, or divide.

Which procedure will give you the only reasonable answer?

Answer 2

I know the unit rate is 26 mpg. I answered that part already, but my teacher also has the word problem and says to write it as a rate and label it. That's the part I can't figure out?
