Step-by-step explanation:

To find unit rates, divide the number in the numerator of the rate by the number in the denominator of the rate. A car traveled 344 miles on 16 gallons of gasoline. To find the miles per gallon (unit rate), divide the numerator of the rate by the denominator of the rate. 344/16 = 21.5 miles / gallon is the rate.
