Answer: Unit rate for 1 pencil is 0.43.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have given that
Cost of 8 pencils = 3.44
We need to find the cost of 1 pencil i.e unit rate for 1 pencil,
For this we'll use the unitary method ,
Cost of 1 pencil is given by
[tex]\frac{3.44}{8}=0.43[/tex]
Hence, unit rate for 1 pencil is 0.43.
