    While writing ratio the units must be same

    here units are minutes and hours.

    Either convert minutes into hours or hours into minutes

    Converting minutes into hours 150 min = 150/60 hr. = 2.5 hours

    So ratio = 2.5 / 3= 25 / 30 = 0.833

    Converting hours in to minutes.

    3 hours = 3 × 60 = 180 minutes.

    So ratio = 150/180 = 0.833

  • Unit rate means you want the time unit to be 1. So you would divide each measure by 3 to get 50 miles / 1 hour or more conveniently stated, 50 mph

  • 50mph 150mi/3h
