About this worksheet
Each worksheet has 10 problems finding the unit rate from a ratio given in a sentence.
The unit is part of the answer here, which is why the sheet asks for it: 60 is meaningless and 60 miles per hour is the answer, and asking for the number alone would let a student divide without ever deciding which quantity goes underneath. Every division comes out exactly, since the total is built from the rate rather than drawn and checked, keeping the sheet about what a unit rate is rather than about long division. Sheets can be customized, turned into flash cards, or assigned for online learning.
Student objectives
- Divide a ratio to find a unit rate.
- Decide which quantity goes underneath.
- Write the rate with its unit.
Everyday practice
- Work out a speed from a distance and a time.
