Answer:
[tex]2\frac{5}{6}[/tex] square foot per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
The total area covered = 34 square foot
Time taken = 12 hours
This implies that it takes 12 hours to cover 34 square foot.
Using proportionality,
12 hours ---------------------------------------> 34 square foot
Dividing both sides by 12
[tex]\frac{12}{12} hours[/tex] ---------------------------> [tex]\frac{34}{12} square foot[/tex]
1 hour ---------------------------------------> [tex]2\frac{5}{6}[/tex] square foot per hour
The unit rate in square feet per hour is [tex]2\frac{5}{6}[/tex] square foot per hour
