Question

find the unit rate.
kenny reads \\(\frac{3}{8}\\) page in \\(\frac{2}{5}\\) minute.
kenny’s unit rate is \\(\square\\) page per minute.

Explanation:

Step1: Recall unit rate formula

Unit rate (pages per minute) is total pages divided by total minutes. So, we use the formula: Unit Rate = $\frac{\text{Pages Read}}{\text{Time Taken}}$. Here, pages read is $\frac{3}{8}$ and time taken is $\frac{2}{5}$ minute.

Step2: Divide the fractions

To divide $\frac{3}{8}$ by $\frac{2}{5}$, we multiply by the reciprocal: $\frac{3}{8} \times \frac{5}{2} = \frac{15}{16}$.

Answer:

$\frac{15}{16}$
