A water pump moves 42 gallons in 7 minutes. Find the unit rate. |

Answer» Answer: Step-by-step EXPLANATION: Our rate is 42/7. To MAKE this a unit rate, we NEED to DIVIDE the denominator by 7. What we do to the denominator, we must ALSO do to the numerator; this means we have (42÷7)/(7÷7) = 6/1. This is a rate of 6 gallons per minute |
