In 4 hours, you hike 10 miles. What is your unit rate of speed on the hike?

1 answer

To find the unit rate of speed on the hike, divide the total distance hiked by the total time it took.

Unit rate of speed = Distance / Time

In this case, you hiked 10 miles in 4 hours.

Unit rate of speed = 10 miles / 4 hours

Simplifying this expression, we get:

Unit rate of speed = 2.5 miles/hour

Therefore, the unit rate of speed on the hike is 2.5 miles per hour.
