Question

students adults 8 1 16 2 24 3 identify the unit rate in \adults per student\.

Explanation:

Step1: Recall unit rate formula

Unit rate (adults per student) is $\frac{\text{Adults}}{\text{Students}}$.

Step2: Calculate using first row

For 8 students and 1 adult: $\frac{1}{8} = 0.125$.

Step3: Verify with second row

16 students, 2 adults: $\frac{2}{16} = \frac{1}{8} = 0.125$.

Step4: Verify with third row

24 students, 3 adults: $\frac{3}{24} = \frac{1}{8} = 0.125$.

Answer:

$\frac{1}{8}$ (or 0.125) adults per student
