To find the unit rate, we first calculate how many donuts Ramon makes in one hour.

Ramon makes 33 donuts in 7 hours, so the unit rate is:

\[ \frac{33 \text{ donuts}}{7 \text{ hours}} \approx 4.71 \text{ donuts/hour} \]

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

\[ 4.71 \text{ donuts/hour} \times 5 \text{ hours} \approx 23.55 \text{ donuts} \]

Since we're looking for whole donuts, we round down to the nearest whole number, which is 23.

Therefore, in 5 hours, Ramon would make 23 whole donuts.
