you previously learned that a unit rate is a rate in which the second quantity in the comparison is one unit, such as 4 ounces per 1 serving. Describe the relationship between ounces of salsa and small jars of salsa using a unite rate.

Respuesta :

Suppose there are 81 ounces of salsa in 9 small jars of salsa. To find the unit rate, you have to divide the number of ounces by the number of jars, as follows:

[tex]\frac{81\text{ ounces of salsa}}{9\text{ small jars}}=\frac{81}{9}\frac{\text{ounces of salsa}}{\text{small jars}}=9\text{ }\frac{\text{ounces of salsa}}{\text{small jar}}[/tex]

That is, there are 9 ounces of salsa per small jar.
