The complete question is: how to find the unit rate for 325 meters in 28 seconds.
Remember that a rate is a ratio that compares quantities of different units; in our case we are comparing meters and seconds. A unit rate is a rate expressed as a quantity of one; in other words the second quantity is one unit. To express a ratio as a unit rate, just divide the numerator by the denominator.
The rate between our quantities is [tex] \frac{325meters}{28seconds} [/tex]. To express our rate as a unit rate, we just need to express the second quantity as 1. To do it, we just need to divide the numerator 325 by the denominator 28:
[tex] \frac{325meters}{28seconds} =11.71\frac{meters}{second} [/tex]
We can conclude that the correct answer is [tex] 11.71\frac{meters}{second} [/tex], or using words 11.71 meters per second.
