Math Help Due Soon Homework class=

Sagot :

Hey there!

First, we are given:

[tex]\frac{1\frac{1}{4}}{1\frac{3}{8}}[/tex]

To make this easier, I am going to change the fractions in to decimals.

[tex]\frac{1.25}{0.375}[/tex]

To get the unit rate, we can use proportions:

[tex]\frac{1.25}{0.375} = \frac{x}{1}[/tex]

Using cross products, we know that...

[tex]1.25 * 1 = 0.375 * x[/tex]

Now, we solve for [tex]x[/tex]:

[tex]1.25 * 1 = 0.375 * x\\ 1.25 = 0.375x\\ 3 \frac{1}{3} = x[/tex]

Therefore, the unit rate is [tex]\frac{3\frac{1}{3} }{1}[/tex]

Now, do the same with the other problem, and the unit rate is [tex]\frac{1\frac{4}{5} }{1}[/tex]

Have a terrificly amazing day!!!
