Amodel rocket is 3 inches long. the real rocket is 120 feet long. what is the unit rate that describes the relationship of the real rocket to the model rocket? a. 360 in./ft b. 40 in./ft c. 40 ft/in. d. 360 ft/in.

The units are the complete story on this question. All of the choices are over 1 so the units make the answer over one. It takes more feet than it does inches to make the scale. The correct units are 120 feet / 3 inches. That makes A and B both incorrect.

You can't get 360 by any method but multiplication. The units for multiplication would be ft*in. So D is wrong. That only leaves you with C which is the answer.

- 1.613 = -1.6 or -1.61

-1.522 = -1.5 or -1.52

0.587 = 0.6 or 0.59

3.079 = 3.1 or 3.08
