Sam is traveling for a cross country event it takes her 56 minutes to run 8 miles what is the unit rate of minutes per mile

1 answer

To find the unit rate of minutes per mile, divide the total number of minutes by the total number of miles.

Minutes per mile = Total minutes / Total miles

In this case, the total minutes is 56 minutes and the total miles is 8 miles.

Minutes per mile = 56 minutes / 8 miles

Simplifying the equation, we get:

Minutes per mile = 7 minutes/mile

Therefore, the unit rate of minutes per mile is 7 minutes per mile.
