1. Question
A factory can produce `120` cars in `6` hours. How many cars can they produce each hour?- (20)`\text(cars/hour)`
Hint
Help VideoCorrect
Correct!
Incorrect
A rate is a ratio of two different units.Convert the values into fraction form`120 \text(cars in) 6 \text(hours)` `=` `(120 \text(cars))/(6 \text(hours))` Make the value of the denominator equal to `1` unit to get the rate.`(120)/6` `=` $$\frac{120\div{\color{#CC0000}{6}}\;\text{cars}}{6\div{\color{#CC0000}{6}}\;\text{hours}}$$ Divide the values by `6` `=` `(20 \text(cars))/(\text(hour))` This can be read as `20 \text(cars per hour)`.`20 \text(cars/hour)` -

Incorrect
A rate is a ratio of two different units.Convert the values into fraction form`$9 \text(for) 12 \text(kg)` `=` `($9)/(12 \text(kg))` Make the value of the denominator equal to `1` unit to get the rate.`(9)/12` `=` $$\frac{$9\div{\color{#CC0000}{12}}}{12\div{\color{#CC0000}{12}}\;\text{kg}}$$ Divide the values by `12` `=` `($0.75)/(\text(kg))` Finally, convert the dollars into cents.`1 \text(dollar)` `=` `100 \text(cents)` `(0.75xx(100)/1)/(\text(kg))` `=` `(75 \text(cents))/(\text(kg))` This can be read as `75 \text(cents per kilogram)`.`75 \text(cents/kg)` -

Hint

Fantastic!
Incorrect
A rate is a ratio of two different units.Convert the values into fraction form`680 \text(m in) 85 \text(seconds)` `=` `(680 \text(m))/(85 \text(seconds))` Make the value of the denominator equal to `1` unit to get the rate.`(680)/(85)` `=` $$\frac{680\div{\color{#CC0000}{85}}\;\text{m}}{85\div{\color{#CC0000}{85}}\;\text{seconds}}$$ Divide the values by `85` `=` `(8 \text(m))/(\text(second))` This can be read as `8 \text(metres per second)`.`8 \text(m/sec)` -

Hint

Nice Job!
Incorrect
A rate is a ratio of two different units.Quad boxes are used to easily find rates
(Use cross product method)First, fill up the quad boxes with the three known values and have the unknown value be `x`.km Hour `6` `1` `x` `3` Next, equate the two columns and solve for `x`.`6/x` `=` `1/3` `1(x)` `=` `6(3)` Cross multiply `x` `=` `18` Since `x` is under the `\text(km)` column in the quad boxes, the value will be `18 \text(kilometres)`.`18 \text(km)`
