Which ratios have a unit rate greater than 1? Choose ALL that apply

Which Ratios Have A Unit Rate Greater Than 1 Choose ALL That Apply class=

Sagot :

Answer:

7 miles:3/4 hour

9/8 miles:5/6 hours

4 miles:3 1/3 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the unit ratio divide each left side by the number on right side. if it's greater than 1 then unit rate is greater than 1

Answer:

-Ratio 2

-Ratio 4

-Ratio 5

Step-by-step explanation:

So, before we solve each ratio, we first need to understand what a unit rate is.

A unit rate is rato of one specific value. For example, the ratios in your problem look lik this:
[tex]ratio 1 : ratio2[/tex]

A unit rate looks like this:

[tex]\frac{ratio1}{ratio2}[/tex]

Now lets go over each ratio:

Ratio 1:

[tex]\frac{9}{5}miles : 3 hours[/tex]

So, to find the unite rate, we divide [tex]\frac{9}{5}[/tex] by 3:

[tex]\frac{\frac{9}{5} }{3} = \frac{3}{5}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{3}{5}[/tex] is less than 1, so the first ratio is not correct.

Now that we have went through the first one step by step, I will do the other ones without explanation(If you want a explanation on them feel free to ask :3)

Ratio 2:

[tex]7 miles : \frac{3}{4} hours[/tex]

=

[tex]\frac{7}{\frac{3}{4} } = \frac{28}{3} = 9 \frac{1}{3}[/tex]

This has a unit rate greater than 1, and is correct.

Ratio 3:

[tex]2 \frac{1}{2}miles : 3hours[/tex]

=

[tex]\frac{2\frac{1}{2} }{3} = \frac{5}{6}[/tex]

This has a unit rate less than 1, and is not correct

Ratio 4:

[tex]\frac{9}{8}miles : \frac{5}{6} hours[/tex]

=

[tex]\frac{\frac{9}{8} }{\frac{5}{6} } = \frac{54}{40}[/tex]

This has a unit rate greater than 1, and is correct

Ratio 5:

[tex]4miles : 3\frac{1}{3} hours[/tex]

=

[tex]\frac{4}{3\frac{1}{3} } = \frac{12}{10}[/tex]

This has a unit rate greater than 1, and is correct

Ratio 6:
[tex]\frac{1}{3} mile : 2\frac{3}{8} hours[/tex]

=

[tex]\frac{\frac{1}{3} }{2\frac{3}{8} } = \frac{\frac{8}{3} }{19} = \frac{8}{57}[/tex]

This has a unit rate less than 1, and is not correct.

Hope this helps! :3
