Understanding Rates and Unit Rates

The video tutorial explains how to calculate rates and unit rates using two examples: the cost of soda bottles and the miles per gallon for a truck. It demonstrates how to express rates, convert them to unit rates, and use proportions to find costs or distances for different quantities. The tutorial provides step-by-step calculations and emphasizes understanding equivalent rates and ratios.

What is the rate of cost to bottles for six bottles of soda costing $3.60?

• $3.60 per bottle

• $0.60 per bottle

• $0.30 per bottle

How do you calculate the unit rate from a given rate?

• Subtract the smaller term from the larger term

• Add the terms together

• Divide both terms by the same number

• Multiply both terms by the same number
