Identify do unit rates from the easy questions explaining how you found the unit rate what information do the unit rates give you

If there is a question saying, "What is the unit rate of a car traveling 54 miles for 12 hours?" Then I would first find out the speed of the car (speed = distance / time). s = (54) / (12). In other words, speed equals 4.5 miles per hour. In this case, the speed of 4.5 mph is the unit rate. This is because the unit rate is a rate with a denominator of one. In other words, rates such as 45 mph, 7 ounces/1 min., and other numbers with a denominator of one is a unit rate.
