Answer 1

To find the unit rate for 1 bag of chips, we need to determine the cost of 1 bag when 5 bags cost $6.25.

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

\[ \text{Cost per bag} = \frac{\text{Total cost}}{\text{Number of bags}} = \frac{6.25}{5} = 1.25 \]

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

The correct response is:

$1.25
