How are Ratios, rates and unit rates used to solve problems?

ratios, rates, and unit rates can be used to solve how much of something there is compared to another thing.  Ex: There are 3 times the amount of apples compared to oranges.  How many apples are there if you have 2 oranges?  For a ratio, you would make it 3:1.  Then substitute the 1 for 2.  For a rate, you would make it 3 apples per oranges.  Then do the same thing you would do for the ratio.  Unit rates work the same way.

Step-by-step explanation:

sorry if this isn't the answer you were hoping for, but I tried

7 ft 6 in means 7 1/2, because 6 in is 1/2 of a foot. 7 ft 8 in means 7 2/3 because 8 in is 2/3 of a foot. 23/3 = 7 2/3. 15/2 = 7 1/2.

23/3   *   15/2   = 57 1/2

step-by-step explanation:

hello 0xxbadwolfxx0,

2.6 x 10^9 is 2,600,000,000.

1.3 x 10^2 is 130

multiplying 130 and 2,600,000,000 would simply give you 200,000,000,000.

therefore, the answer would be d. 2.0 × 10^11.

i hope i ! warm regards, mae.
