Answer: Unit rate would be 6 gallons per minute.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have given that
Part of gallon = [tex]\dfrac{2}{3}[/tex]
Time taken of a minute = [tex]\dfrac{1}{9}[/tex]
We need to find the unit rate from the complex fraction i.e.
[tex]\dfrac{\dfrac{2}{3}}{\dfrac{1}{9}}[/tex] gallons per minute
So, it becomes,
[tex]\dfrac{2}{3}\div \dfrac{1}{9}\\\\=\dfrac{2}{3}\times \dfrac{9}{1}\\\\=2\times 3\\\\=6\ gallons/minute[/tex]
Hence, unit rate would be 6 gallons per minute.
