• Look at Example 1. • Can you create your own way to solve this problem? • HINT: Minutes can become hours by putting it over 60 minutes!

Example 1:

• Izzy 2¼ miles = 9/4 15/60 hour = 1/4

When you divide 9/4 by 1/4 you get 9!

• Julia 3 3/4 miles = 15/4 25/60 hour = 5/12

When you divide 15/4 by 5/12 you get 9!

ANSWER: Both girls are EQUAL. Their unit rate was 9 miles / hour.
