HELP PLSSSSSS
48/6 = ?
67.50/9 = ?
67.50/9 = ?
Please I need the answer
you have to find the unit rates.
mrs. carson:
48 divided by 6 is 8$ per hour or 8$ / 1 hour.
mrs. vasquez:
67.50 divided by 9 is 7.50$ per hour or 7.50$ for 1 hour.
by finding the two unit rates with the denominator or numerator the same, you can compare them and you can find that mrs. carson pays more. the unit rates are equal to the original rates, the denominator is just the number 1. hope that helps. :]
