April rides her bike up a hill for 3/4 miles in 1/8 of an hour.tim rides hos bike up hill for 2/3 mile in 2/9 of an hour . What is the unit rate of each rider
+23254 Distance = Rate x Time
April: Tim:
3/4 mi = (Rate) x (1/8 hr) 2/3 mi = (Rate) x (2/9 hr)
Divide both sides by (1/8 hr) Divide both sides by (2/9 hr)
(3/4 mi) ÷ (1/8 hr) = Rate (2/3 mi) ÷ (2/9 hr) = Rate
3/4 ÷ 1/8 = 3/4 x 8/1 = 6 2/3 ÷ 2/9 = 2/3 x 9/2 = 3
Rate = 6 mi/hr Rate = 3 mi/hr
