Ramon makes 33 donuts every 7 hours.

To find the unit rate of donuts made per hour, divide the total donuts by the total hours: 33 donuts / 7 hours = <<33/7=4.714285714285714>>4.71 donuts/hour.

To find how many whole donuts he would make in 5 hours, multiply the unit rate by the number of hours: 4.71 donuts/hour * 5 hours = <<4.71*5=23.55>>23.55 donuts.

Since we can't have a fraction of a donut, Ramon would make 23 whole donuts in 5 hours.

The answer is B. 23.
u sure?
I apologize for the confusion in my previous response. You are right, we cannot have a fraction of a donut. Therefore, in 5 hours, Ramon would make the closest whole number of donuts to the calculated value, which is 23.

So the correct answer is B. 23. Thank you for catching that mistake.
well how did u get the answer
Apologies for the confusion. Let me walk through the calculations again.

Ramon makes 33 donuts every 7 hours.

To find the unit rate of donuts made per hour, we divide the total donuts by the total hours: 33 donuts / 7 hours = 4.714285714285714 donuts/hour.

To find how many donuts he would make in 5 hours, we multiply the unit rate by the number of hours: 4.714285714285714 donuts/hour * 5 hours = 23.571428571428573 donuts.

Since we cannot have a fraction of a donut, we round down to the nearest whole number. So in 5 hours, Ramon would make 23 whole donuts.

So the correct answer is B. 23.
