Lesson 1-2 Example 4 1-2 Solve. NATURE The herring can swim 74 miles in 20 hours. The cod can swim 35 miles in 7 hours. Which fish swims at a faster rate? UnderstandRead the problem. Write what you know. The herring can swim 74 miles in 20 hours. The cod can swim 35 miles in 7 hours.
2
Lesson 1-2 Example 4 1-2 PlanPick a strategy. One strategy is to solve a simpler problem. Find each unit rate.
3
Lesson 1-2 Example 4 1-2 SolveWrite each rate as a fraction. Find an equivalent rate with a denominator of 1. Unit Rate of the Herring Unit Rate of the Cod
4
Lesson 1-2 Example 4 1-2 Compare the unit rates for each fish. 3.7 miles/hour < 5 miles/hour The cod swims at a faster rate.
5
Lesson 1-2 Example 4 1-2 CheckDoes the answer make sense? Did you answer the question?
