Define Rate: A quantity measured by another quantity .
Example : 60km/h [rate of speed]




What is the difference between rate and ratio?
Ratio : Comparing 2 numbers with the same unit
Example) Reds to Greens or 4 cars to 7 trucks

Rate: Its measured in different units (km/h)

Example) Bob was traveling 100km/h for 3 hours how fast was he traveling for 2 hours?
