Answer:

$Rate = 1.1/hr$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Start = 23$

$End = 16$

$Hours = 6\frac{1}{2}h$

Required

Calculate the hourly rate

First, we will determine the amount of ice cream that was sold

$Ice\ Cream = 23 - 16$

$Ice\ Cream = 7$

Next, calculate the average hourly rate:

$Rate = Ice\ Cream/Hours$

$Rate = 7/6\frac{1}{2}h$

$Rate = 7/\frac{13}{2}h$

$Rate = 7*\frac{2}{13h}$

$Rate = \frac{14}{13h}$

$Rate = 1.07692307692/hr$

$Rate = 1.1/hr$ -- Approximated
