Question

if Jacob paints 1/5 of a wall in 1/10 of an hour, what is his unit rate?​

Answer 1

jacobs unit rate is 1/5 of the wall every 6 minutes which is .033 repeating of the wall every 1 minute

Answer 2

Answer:

2 pieces of wall/1 hour

Step-by-step explanation:

1) since time is an independant variable it will be the denominator

so 1/5÷1/10

when dividing fractions remember that the sign changes to multiplication and the second fraction reciprocates (turns upside down)

so

1/5*10/1=10/5

Jacob paints 10/5ths of the wall (2), in an hour
