EXAMPLES
Find the rate in each situation.
a. A machine can produce 320 units in 4 hours.
b. A printer can print 60 pages per minute. How many
pages in 1 hour?
a. 𝐴 𝑚𝑎𝑐ℎ𝑖𝑛𝑒 𝑟𝑎𝑡𝑒 = 320 𝑢𝑛𝑖𝑡𝑠 / 4 ℎ𝑜𝑢𝑟𝑠 = 80 𝑢𝑛𝑖𝑡𝑠/ℎ𝑜𝑢𝑟
Solution:
b. 𝐴 𝑝𝑟𝑖𝑛𝑡𝑒𝑟 𝑟𝑎𝑡𝑒 = 60 𝑝𝑎𝑔𝑒𝑠 / 1 𝑚𝑖𝑛𝑢𝑡𝑒 = 60 𝑝𝑎𝑔𝑒𝑠/𝑚𝑖𝑛𝑢𝑡𝑒
1 ℎ𝑜𝑢𝑟 = 60 𝑚𝑖𝑛𝑢𝑡𝑒𝑠 × 60 𝑝𝑎𝑔𝑒𝑠 = 3,600 𝑝𝑎𝑔𝑒𝑠/ ℎ𝑜𝑢r
