Find the unit rate.

Question

48 plates in 8 stacks = plates per stack

Answer 1

To find the unit rate (plates per stack), you need to divide the total number of plates by the number of stacks.

Given:

• Total plates = 48
• Total stacks = 8

Now, calculate the unit rate:

\[ \text{Plates per stack} = \frac{\text{Total plates}}{\text{Total stacks}} = \frac{48}{8} = 6 \]

So, there are 6 plates per stack.
