What is the use of unitary method in our daily life

Answer 1

Unitary method has several uses in our daily life like when we talk about speed, rate or percentage, we invariably relate to unitary method. For instance, when we calculate the average speed of a car, that has traveled 130 kilometers in 2 hours, we end up calculating the distance traveled by the car in 1 hour.

To calculate the percentage of a certain quantity, unitary method is also used. For instance, if you are asked to calculate 9% of 1000 kilograms, all you need to do is to find out the amount equivalent to 1% of 1000 kg. Once it is calculated then you can easily find out 9% of 1000 kg by multiplying the result of 1% by 9.
