The rate at which an airplane flew was 700 miles over 2 hours How can the unit rate be determined?

A unit rate tells how much there is for 1 unit of the other quantity. For 700 miles in 2 hours, divide both parts of the rate by 2 to write an equivalent rate with a denominator of 1 hour: 350 miles per hour. So the unit rate is determined by writing an equivalent rate with a denominator of 1.
