For every 1/2 mile that sira jogs,she walks 3/4 mile.What unit rate gives the number of miles sira jogs for every mile she walks?
+23254 If you compare ratio of the distance jogged to the distance walked, you get the ratio: 1/2 : 3/4
But, you want the comparison when the the distance walked is 1; so you want the second number to be 1.
To get 1 as the second number, multiply that number by its reciprocal, 4/3 because 3/4 x 4/3 = 1.
However, if you multiply the second number by 4/3, you must also multiply the first number by 4/3.
Doing this will give you the ratio that you want and the number of miles jogged per unit miles walked.
