Answer :

The unit rate of 240 miles in 6 hours would be 40 miles per hour.

In unit rate - 240 miles in 6 hours equals to 40 miles/hour.

We have a body that covered 240 miles in 6 hours.

We have to represent it in unit rate or miles/hour.

The rate of change of distance per unit time is called?

The rate of change of distance per unit time is called speed. Mathematically, we can write speed as -

[tex]s = \frac{d}{t}[/tex]

If the distance covered is in miles and time is in hours, then the speed can be calculated in miles/hour.

To be more precise, In the question given to us - we have to calculate the speed of the body. Substituting the values in the above formula, we get -

s = [tex]\frac{240}{6}[/tex] = 40 miles/hour

Hence, in unit rate - 240 miles in 6 hours equals to 40 miles/hour.
