The video tutorial explains how to compare rates by converting them into unit rates. It begins with an introduction to the concept of comparing rates and the difficulty of identifying which is greater or lesser in their original form. The tutorial then explains how to convert rates into unit rates by dividing the top and bottom values, allowing for easy comparison. Through examples, the video demonstrates the calculation of unit rates and how to compare them to determine which is larger or smaller. The lesson concludes with a summary and encourages students to practice the concept.

What is the main challenge when comparing rates in their original format?

• They are difficult to compare directly.

• They are always equal.

• They are too large to calculate.

• They are already in unit rates.

What is the first step in converting a rate to a unit rate?

• Divide the numerator by the denominator.

• Multiply the numerator by the denominator.

• Add the numerator and denominator.

• Subtract the denominator from the numerator.

What is the result of dividing the numerator and denominator by the denominator in a rate?

• A unit rate.

• An unchanged rate.

• A negative rate.

• A larger rate.

How do you convert 35 points in 20 minutes to a unit rate?

• Multiply 35 by 20 and 20 by 35.

• Divide 35 by 20 and 20 by 20.

• Add 35 and 20 together.

• Divide 35 by 35 and 20 by 20.

What is the unit rate for 35 points in 20 minutes?

• 1.4 points per minute

• 1 point per minute

• 2 points per minute

• 1.75 points per minute

How do you convert 49 points in 35 minutes to a unit rate?

• Multiply 49 by 35 and 35 by 49.

• Divide 49 by 35 and 35 by 35.

• Subtract 35 from 49.

• Add 49 and 35 together.

What is the unit rate for 49 points in 35 minutes?

• 1.4 points per minute

• 1 point per minute

• 1.75 points per minute

• 2 points per minute

Which unit rate is larger: 1.75 points per minute or 1.4 points per minute?

• Cannot be determined.

• 1.4 points per minute

• 1.75 points per minute

• They are equal.

How can you verify which rate is greater when given two unit rates?

• Add both rates together.

• Compare the numerators.

• Compare the denominators.

• Subtract one rate from the other.

Why is it important to convert rates to unit rates before comparing?

• It makes calculations easier.

• It is not important.

• It changes the values completely.

• It allows for a direct comparison.
