Ratio: 903
Rate: 90 miles3 hours
Read as “90 miles per 3 hours.”
A rate is a comparison of two quantities that have different units.
Ratios, Rates, and Unit Rates4-1
Unit rates are rates in which the second quantity is 1.
unit rate: 30 miles,1 hour
or 30 mi/h
The ratio 903
can be simplified by dividing:
903
= 301

A driver is competing in a 500-mile auto race.
Additional Example 3B: Application
Use the formula d = rt.
The driver estimates that he will finish the race in less than 3 hours. If the driver keeps traveling at the same average speed, is his estimate reasonable? Explain.
500 = 178t Substitute 500 for d and 178 for r.
Determine how long the trip will take.
_ ___ 178 178 Divide both sides by 178.
