Answer:
0.1
Step-by-step explanation:
To set this question up:
1/2 / 5
To solve this turn 5 into 5/1. Then multiply by the reciprocal. (1/5) 1/2 times 1/5 is 0.1
Using the principle of proportional relationship, the unit rate, which is the rate per pound is 1 : 10 days
Setting up the proportional relationship thus :
0.5 pounds = 5 days
1 pound = x days
Cross multiply
0.5x = 5 × 1
0.5x = 5
Divide both sides by 0.5
0.5x/0.5 = 5/0.5
x = 10
Therefore, the unit rate is 1 : 10 days
