  3. Example 1: Andy biked 24 miles in 4 hours. If he traveled at a constant speed, how many miles did he ride in 1 hour? Write a verbal model of what you are comparing. Substitute in the values given for each quantity. Since a unit rate has a denominator of 1 unit, divide the numerator and denominator by 4. Andy biked 6 miles per hour.

  4. Example 2: A 12-pack of Gatorade costs $13.44. What is the unit price per bottle? Write a verbal model of what you are comparing. Substitute in the values given for each quantity. Divide the numerator and denominator by 12 to find the unit rate. The unit price is $1.12 per bottle.

Find the unit rate in miles per hour. Multiply the unit rate, or average speed, by the number of hours traveled. Peyton travels 184 miles in 4 hours.

  7. Example 5: Jerry can jog 1⅓ miles in ¼ hour. Find his average speed in miles per hour. Write a verbal model of what you are comparing. Substitute in the values given for each quantity. Since average speed in miles per 1 hour, divide the numerator and denominator by ¼ . Jerry jogs at an average speed of 5 ⅓ miles per hour.

  8. Example 6: Mr. Isaacs is spreading mulch in his yard. He spreads 4⅔ square yards in 2 hours. How many square yards can he mulch in 1 hour? Write a verbal model of what you are comparing. Substitute in the values given for each quantity. Divide the numerator and denominator by 2 to find the unit rate. Mr. Isaacs can mulch 2 ⅓ square yards per hour.
