Question

If a salesman delivers 15 orders in 3 days, then the unit rate is orders per day

Answer 1

Given, 15 orders received in 3 days.

Unit rate is equal to the number of orders received per day.

$15\text{orders in 3 days =}\frac{15}{3}\text{orders per day}$

Let's divide $\frac{15}{3}:$

$\therefore 15\text{orders in 3 days =}5\text{orders per day}$

$\text{Hence, the unit rate is}\underset{–}{5}\text{orders per day}$.
