To convert 168 newspapers per week to newspapers per hour, we first need to find out how many hours there are in a week.
There are 7 days in a week, and 24 hours in a day:
\[ 7 \text{ days/week} \times 24 \text{ hours/day} = 168 \text{ hours/week} \]
Now, we can calculate the number of newspapers per hour by dividing the total number of newspapers by the total hours in a week:
\[ \text{Newspapers per hour} = \frac{168 \text{ newspapers}}{168 \text{ hours}} = 1 \text{ newspaper/hour} \]
So, the equivalent rate is:
\[ 1 \text{ newspaper/hour} \]
