Question

Give an example of a unit rate that you have used in your life recently. Explain how you
used this rate and why it was useful to you.

Answer 1

@Vocaloid can you help me with this problem? or @Moon

Answer 2

Do you cook or bake?

Answer 3

yes sometimes

Answer 4

So let's say you're making a smoothie

And you normally make one cup just for yourself
And you usually put in 3 teaspoons of sugar for your one cup

Answer 5

But your friends hear about how great your smoothies are and they want to taste it

So you need to make 5 cups of smoothie. How much sugar do you need?

Answer 6

15 teaspoons which is also 5 table spoons

Answer 7

Let's stick to just one unit so 15 teaspoons

And that right there gives us a unit rate

We need 3 teaspoons of sugar for 1 cup of a delicious smoothie

You can modify the example to whatever you want it to be.
But like the relevance for this example here, too little sugar and it's not sweet, too much sugar and it's too sweet.

Answer 8

And so you can use any unit of measurement you want, hopefully that helps (:
