Answer:
6.95 gallons/month
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that In 8 months, 55.6 gallons were used
Amount used in 8 months = 55.6 gallons
We are supposed to find amount used per month i.e. unit rate
So, Amount used in 8 months = 55.6 gallons
Amount used in 1 month = [tex]\frac{55.6}{8}[/tex] gallons
Amount used in 1 month = [tex]6.95[/tex] gallons
So, 6.95 gallons were used in 1 month
Hence the unit rate is 6.95 gallons/month
