Best Answer

It can mean "for every". Thirty miles per hour means that you travel thirty miles for every hour. "Per" signifies that you'll be dividing something. In this example, thirty miles per hour would be written as:

30/1 mi/hr.

It can be simplified to:

30 mi/hr

And, in common terms, it can be written as:

30 mph
