  7. rates • Ratio that compares two quantities measured in different units

  8. examples

  9. Written and compared • They are written and compared like ratios • *still simplify if needed

  10. Unit rate • A specific type of rate • 1. Has a denominator of 1 • 2. How much for one? • 3. How long for one?

  11. How to find unit rate • Set rate up like fraction • Then divide both numerator and denominator by the denominator. • * this may result in a decimal numerator
