Question

Ruth can read 15 pages in 30 minutes. She decides to create a table to keep track of her progress.From the data provided, at what ratio is the unit rate represented?

Answer 1

The unit rate in this case is the number of pages Ruth can read per minute. To find the ratio at which the unit rate is represented, divide the number of pages by the number of minutes:

15 pages / 30 minutes = 1/2

Therefore, the unit rate is represented by the ratio 1:2.
