12.50 ft per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Fish pond has a rectangular shape.

Length of fish pond = 60 feet

Width of fish pond = 40 feet

Total time to complete the fencing = 16 hours

To find:

Unit rate of putting the fencing around the fish pond.

Solution:

First of all, we need to find the total fencing to be put around the fish pond.

Total fencing is nothing but the perimeter of the fish pond which is of rectangular shape.

Formula for perimeter of rectangular shape is given as:

Unit rate is the perimeter divided by total time taken to put the fencing around.

Therefore,

Unit rate = feet per hour

So, the answer is 12.5 feet per hour.
