Sure! Let’s solve each problem by finding the
unit rate — which means we want to find the amount per
one unit (per 1 hour, per 1 game, per 1 bag, etc.).
We do this by dividing the total quantity by the number of units.

📌
Tip: Unit rate always asks “how much per one?” — so divide total by number of units. If it’s money or time, you may need to round to cents or seconds as needed. In this case, we rounded to two decimals where necessary.
Let me know if you’d like to see these written as fractions too!
