Answer:
$1.26 per yard of ribbon
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello, I think I can help you with this
The unit rate is the price that you pay for a unit of product, It is given by:
[tex]unit\ rate=\frac{total\ paid}{number\ of\ products} \\[/tex]
in this case, all you have to do is put the values in the equation
Step one
Let
[tex]6\frac{1}{2} =\frac{(6*2)+1}{2} =\frac{13}{2} =6.5[/tex]
so, 6 1/2=6.5
total paid:$8.22
number of products=6.5 yards of ribbon
replacing
[tex]unit\ rate=\frac{total\ paid}{number\ of\ products}\\unit\ rate=\frac{8.22}{6.5}unit\ rate=1.26[/tex]
unit rate = $1.26 per yard of ribbon
I hope it helps, Have a great day
