write the ratio of the two measurements in the unit indicated (the unit rate)

1 answer

To calculate the unit rate or the ratio of two measurements, you simply divide one measurement by the other and express the result as a fraction, often in the form of "X per Y" where X is the first measurement and Y is the second measurement.

For example, if you have two measurements:

  • Measurement A: 50 miles
  • Measurement B: 2 hours

To find the unit rate (miles per hour), you would perform the division:

\[ \text{Unit Rate} = \frac{\text{Measurement A}}{\text{Measurement B}} = \frac{50 \text{ miles}}{2 \text{ hours}} = 25 \text{ miles per hour} \]

If you provide specific measurements, I can help you calculate the unit rate for those.
