3.5 BIM Review Unit Rate

We are trying to find the cost of each egg, which is our unit rate

We spent $2.35 to buy 12 eggs.

We set this problem up by taking $2.35 and dividing it by 12.

We do this because we are trying to find cost per egg.

We get .195

We round this to the nearest cent, $.20

We need to read this problem carefully- it is saying servings per package

This wording is telling us to take our servings and divide by packages.

Our result will be 1 package to some number of servings

 $13.5\div3=4.5$  

Our answer will be 4.5 when we divide any of these ratios!

We are trying to find feet per year

This means we need to take our feet and divide by year

 $7.2\div2=3.6$  

Our answer will be 3.6 when we divide any of those ratios!
