Explain the situation, include calculations to show the unit rates, and determine which is the better rate. Here are some examples, but you may think of your own example: Number of channels offered by different cable companies compared to the monthly cost, Cell phone rates, minutes spent on your science and history homework compared to the number of problems, the speed you complete a race, batting average or comparison shopping.

This seems a bit general to me. Are you supposed to make up formulas yourself and then say which one is better?

Didn't mean to scare you :) I suppose this is what you have to do: E.g.: Student A makes his homework. He completes 20 problems in 56 minutes. Student B makes her homework. She completes 26 problems in 1 hour 3 minutes. Calculate the number of problems done per hour by A and B. Compare the rates. Which is better?
