What should the following rate be divided by to convert it to a unit rate?6 inches
12 hours

Answers

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

Unit rate is a rate that has 1 as denominator.

Given the rate: 6 inches / 12 hours, we have to divide numerator and denominator by 12 to transform the denominator in 1, as follows:

(6)/(12) = (6/12)/(12/12) = 0.5 inches/hour

The circumference of the earth is about 25,000 miles. Approximately how far is it from any point on the earth's surface to its center?

Answers

Since C = 2rπ
 
if the C of earth = 25000 miles

then the r =  C ÷ (2π)
                = 25,000 miles ÷ 2π
                = 12500 ÷ π
                ≈ 3978.87358 miles

Since radius is a measure of the distance from the center to any point on the circle then that distance would be about 3978.8736 miles
