Oscar is training to compete in a cross country meet at his school. In a week he runs a total of 7 miles in 84 minutes. What is the unit rate of minutes per mile?(1 point)

Question

minutes per mile .

Answer 1

To find the unit rate of minutes per mile, you can divide the total number of minutes by the total number of miles.

Oscar runs 7 miles in 84 minutes.

To find the minutes per mile:

\[ \text{Minutes per mile} = \frac{\text{Total minutes}}{\text{Total miles}} = \frac{84 \text{ minutes}}{7 \text{ miles}} = 12 \text{ minutes per mile} \]

So, the unit rate is 12 minutes per mile.
