Given the statement:
Jonah bicycled 12 miles in 4 hours.
distance = 12 miles
time = 4 hours
Formula for unit rate or the velocity:
v = d/t
v = velocity
d = distance
t = time
Determine the unit rate.
Solution:
In order to determine the unit rate, we simply need to equate the given in the formula for the velocity.
v = 12 miles/4hours
v = 3 miler per hour
Final answer:
3 miles per hour
