Jackie is knitting a scarf and wants to know the unit rate of stitches per inch. If she knits 105 stitches to create a 5-inch section of the scarf, what is the unit rate of stitches per inch?

1 answer

To find the unit rate, divide the total number of stitches by the length in inches.
The unit rate of stitches per inch is 105 stitches / 5 inches = <<105/5=21>>21 stitches per inch. Answer: \boxed{21}.
