Answer 1

To find the unit rate of flowers per vase, divide the total number of flowers by the total number of vases:

\[ \text{Unit rate} = \frac{\text{Total flowers}}{\text{Total vases}} = \frac{112 \text{ flowers}}{14 \text{ vases}} = 8 \text{ flowers per vase} \]

So, the correct response is:

8 flowers.
