Answer 1

55, you just divide the numerator which in this case it is 137.5 by the denominator which is 2.5 to get 55. Hope I helped

Answer 2

137.5 miles in 2.5 hours would be a "rate". To find the "unit rate", you would divide 137.5 by 2.5, to see how many miles you could go every ONE hour.

137.5/2.5 = 55

After dividing 137.5 miles/2.5 hours by 2.5, you end up with 55 miles/1 hour, so your unit rate is 55 miles per hour (mph).

Unit rates are rates that are constant; it is the value of the ratio.
