find the unit rate

Question

42 plants in 6 rows= ___________ plants per row

Answer 1

To find the unit rate of plants per row, you divide the total number of plants by the number of rows.

So, you calculate:

\[ \text{Plants per row} = \frac{\text{Total plants}}{\text{Number of rows}} = \frac{42}{6} = 7 \]

Thus, there are 7 plants per row.
