■ CONCEPT SUMMARY & GUIDED NOTES: 3.8 · Part II
1Solving Problems with Unit Rates
2Strategy Model — step by step
  1. Find the unit rate by dividing total cost by quantity
  2. Compare unit rates to determine the best deal
  3. Multiply unit rate by desired quantity to calculate total cost
3Mathematical Word Bank
  • Unit Rate Problem Solving (Resolución de problemas con tasas unitarias) — Find an amount per 1 unit and use it to compare choices or solve a problem.
  • Unit Rate (Tasa unitaria) — A rate for just 1 of something, like cost for 1 item.
  • Better Buy (Mejor compra) — The choice that costs less for each item.
  • Comparison (Comparación) — Looking at two or more amounts to see how they are related.
  • Per Unit (Por unidad) — For each single item.
  • Rate (Tasa) — A ratio comparing two amounts with different units, like miles per hour.
4Watch out
  • A common mistake in Solve Problems with Unit Rates is comparing the total prices instead of the cost per item — the deal with the smaller total can still cost more per unit. Always reduce each option to its unit rate before you decide, then pick the lower one.
