Since the unit rate of Tito is greater than that of Jonah, hence Tito is running at a faster rate

Unit rates

The ratio of distance covered by an object to tme taken is unit rate.

Calculate the unit rate for both Jonah and Tito

For Jonah

Unit rate = 5laps/9minutes

Unit rate = 0.56 laps per minute

For Tito

Unit rate = 7laps/11.2minutes

Unit rate = 0.625laps per minute

Since the unit rate of Tito is greater than that of Jonah, hence Tito is running at a faster rate
