When rates are expressed as a quantity of 1, such as 2 feet per second or 5 miles per hour, they are called unit rates. If you have a multiple-unit rate such as 120 students for every 3 buses, and want to find the single-unit rate, write a ratio equal to the multiple-unit rate with 1 as the second term.

Non-examples of unit rates include scenarios where the quantities being compared do not have a consistent ratio per single unit.

Similarly, if a recipe calls for 3 cups of flour to make 12 cookies, the ratio is not a unit rate because it doesn't represent a single unit comparison, such as cups of flour per cookie.
