A pet store sells 15 pounds of fish food in 3 days. What is the unit rate in pounds per day?

1 answer

To find the unit rate in pounds per day, divide the total pounds of fish food by the number of days.

Unit rate = Total pounds of fish food / Number of days

Unit rate = 15 pounds / 3 days

Unit rate = 5 pounds/day

Therefore, the unit rate is 5 pounds per day.
