Answer 1

To find out how many donuts Ramon makes in 5 hours, we first need to determine his unit rate of donuts per hour.

Ramon makes 33 donuts in 7 hours, so we calculate the unit rate as follows:

\[
\text{Unit rate} = \frac{33 \text{ donuts}}{7 \text{ hours}} \approx 4.71 \text{ donuts per hour}
\]

Now, we multiply this unit rate by 5 hours to find out how many donuts he would make in that time:

\[
\text{Donuts in 5 hours} = 4.71 \text{ donuts/hour} \times 5 \text{ hours} \approx 23.57 \text{ donuts}
\]

Since we are looking for whole donuts, we round down to 23.

So the answer is:

**23**
