Respuesta :

Answer:

0.109¢

Step-by-step explanation:

We can represent the proportional relationship between the monthly cost of cell phone service and the minutes of service given with a ratio:

cost : minutes

  $1  : 920

To find the monthly cost per minute, we can divide both sides of the ratio by 920 to get a unit ratio and look at the resulting cost:

            cost : minutes

  ($1 / 920)  :  (920 / 920)

  $0.00109 : 1

So, the monthly cost per minute is approximately $0.00109 or 0.109¢.
