Respuesta :

Answer is       Laps                        Time

                       [tex]\frac{3}{6}[/tex] lap                       1  minutes

                       3 lap                      [tex]\frac{12}{2}[/tex] minutes  = 6 minutes

                       4 lap                      8 minutes  

According to the question,

run around the track in 6 minutes is equal to 3 laps

then, run around the track in 1 minutes is [tex]\frac{3}{6}[/tex] lap

                                                                    = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] lap

         run around the track in [tex]\frac{12}{2}[/tex] minutes is 3 laps

          run around the track in 8 minutes is [tex]\frac{3}{6}*8[/tex]

                                                                     =4 laps

How to Find Unit Rate or Unit Price

We understand better through example :

1. Ryan purchased 3 apples for $1.80. What is the unit price, or

    the cost of one apple?

We want to know the price per apple unit so we set up a ratio with the number of apples in the denominator. The total price goes in the numerator. So the fraction is 1.80/3.

Complete the division: 1.80 ÷ 3 = .60. You can conclude that the per apple price unit rate is $0.60/1. Ryan paid a unit price of $0.60 per apple (60 cents per 1 apple = .60/1).

2. The pottery store can make 176 coffee mugs in an 8 hour day.

   How many mugs can they make in one hour?

We want to know the number of mugs made per hour unit so we set up a ratio with hours in the denominator. The total number of mugs made per day goes in the numerator. So the fraction is 176/8.

Complete the division: 176 ÷ 8 = 22. You can conclude that the per hour mug-making unit rate is 22/1. The pottery store makes 22 mugs per hour (22 mugs per 1 hour = 22/1).
