Answer 1

To determine the unit rate for 1 bag of chips, we start with the given relationship: 5 bags cost $6.25.

To find the cost for 1 bag, we can divide the total cost by the number of bags:

\[
\text{Cost per bag} = \frac{\text{Total cost}}{\text{Number of bags}} = \frac{6.25}{5}
\]

Calculating this:

\[
\frac{6.25}{5} = 1.25
\]

Thus, the unit rate for 1 bag of chips is **$1.25**.

Given the options, the correct answer is:

**$1.25**.
