Answer:

Answer:

The new ratio is 30 miles : 1 gallon it called the unit rate          

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain what is the unit rate

- A unit rate describes how many units of the first type of quantity

 equal to one unit of the second type of quantity

- Ex: 3 miles per hour

       $100 per day

       15 students per class

- A unit rate is a rate with 1 in the denominator

- Ex: $20 for 5 pens, the rate is 20 : 5 divide the two terms by the

 denominator 5, then 20 : 5 = 4 : 1 then unit rate is $4 per pen

* Lets solve the problem

- A car can travel 300 miles on 10 gallons of gas

∴ The rate is 300 miles per 10 gallons

- To find the unit rate divide the two terms of the rate by 10

∴ 300 : 10 = 300/10 : 10/10

∴ 300 : 10 = 30 : 1

The unit rate is 30 miles per gallon

* The new ratio is 30 miles : 1 gallon it called the unit rate
