Question 507880: what is a unit rate?
and what is a rate?
Answer by josmiceli(19441)   (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! A rate is how fast or slow something is happening
1 inch per hour is very slow
1 mile per second is very fast
---------
There are other rates that don't involve time, like
1,351 fleas per dog
2.5 cats per family
---------
A unit rate is 1/(something), like
1 dog / 3 children
1 foot / 6.548 sec
