Answer :

2.35/12= 0.1958333 (Divide the total cost by the number of eggs)
The unit rate is about 20 cents per egg. 

Answer:

The unit rate estimated is $0,20.

Step-by-step explanation:

When we want to determine the value of a single unit which is sold in a set, we use the unit rate. In this case the set is the 12 eggs.

We have been told that $ 2.35 is the price for 12 eggs, but what we want to know is how much 1 egg costs.

What corresponds is to divide the total price by the quantity of eggs, in order to determine the unit price:

2.35 / 12 = 0.1958 ...

In this way we can verify that the unit price of 1 egg is approximately $ 0.20.
