It takes 1/8 tsp of baking soda to make 4 dozen cookies. How many teaspoons of baking soda does it take to make 1 dozen cookies?
first one is 11.11Mi
1.Dora runs 3/5 m in 3/20 hr so in 1 hr she runs (3/5)/(3/20) miles = (3/5)*(20/3) = 4 miles 2.90seconds (which is 1 1/2 mins) divided by 6 equals to 15 seconds. 15 seconds is how long each cup takes to make. So, in one minute, it would make 4 cups (60 seconds divided by 15 seconds = 4) 3. 1/32
2. IS 4

Gigi make sure u understand the problem and how to set it up tho !
@johnweldon1993
ok ;)
A bulldozer moves 640 lb of dirt in4/5 h. Complete the unit rate.
do i multiply?
Looks like you got this @JazzyLuvsU123 :)
Thanks @johnweldon1993 :]
(640 lbs)/(4/5 hrs) = 640*5/4 lbs/hr = 3200/4 lbs/hr = 800 lbs/hr
so multiply then divide?
I think it would be x=(1)*(640)/(4/5)=640/4*5=160*5=800 So yes I believe so
A CD makes 58/1/2revolutions in 3/4 min. Complete the unit rate. revolutions/min
ok so 58/1/2 x 3/4
? right?
Unit rate, from the word "rate" you have to find number of revolutions per 1 minute so 58 1/2 revolutions divide by 3/4 min.
oh then do i multiply?or no
yes change 58 1/2 to improper fraction first then divide it by 3/4 remember that dividing a fraction by fraction is the same as getting the reciprocal of one fraction and instead of diving, you have to multiply them
thanks i get it your the best!!
