    First, we need to solve for t.

    Inverse operation of multiplication (75*t) is division. Thus, we need to divide each side of our equation by 75 to solve for t.

    75t/75 = 300/75

    The two 75's cross out.

    t=300/75

    Now we divide to solve for t.

    300/75=4

    t=4

    Thus, t equals 4.

    Our unit per hour is 4.

    Our unit rate: 75
