Answer: The unit rate is 0.67 pages per minute
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's check all the information given to us to solve the question:
Number of pages Anna Maria can read = 40
Time needed by Anna Maria to read those 40 pages = 60 minutes or 1 hour
What is her unit rate in pages per minute?
Current speed of reading of Anna Maria = 40 pages per hour
For calculating the unit rate in pages per minute, we do the following calculation:
40 pages/60 per 60 minutes/60 (Dividing by 60 the number of pages and the time needed)
2/3 pages per minute = 0.67 pages per minute (from fraction to decimals)
Anna Maria can read 0.67 pages per minute
