Unit Rates in the Real World

As we begin our new unit, we are always looking for ways to relate what we are doing in class to what is going on outside of school walls.  As you are going about your evenings and weekend, talk about unit rates and where we see them.  Here are some examples that have been brought up in class:
  • Gas prices (dollar per gallon)
  • Comparing prices at the grocery store to find the better value (dollar per oz)
  • Buying yougurt (dollar per oz)
What other examples can you find?
