Answer 1

To find the unit rate, we need to divide the number of minutes by the number of problems for each writer.

For Sonia:
- For the first set of data, 120 minutes / 6 problems = 20 minutes/1 problem
- For the second set of data, 360 minutes / 18 problems = 20 minutes / 1 problem
- For the third set of data, 500 minutes / 25 problems = 20 minutes / 1 problem
- For the fourth set of data, 1200 minutes / 60 problems = 20 minutes / 1 problem

So Sonia spent an average of 20 minutes per problem.

For Maryna:
- For the first set of data, 200 minutes / 8 problems = 25 minutes / 1 problem
- For the second set of data, 375 minutes / 15 problems = 25 minutes / 1 problem
- For the third set of data, 500 minutes / 20 problems = 25 minutes / 1 problem
- For the fourth set of data, 1250 minutes / 50 problems = 25 minutes / 1 problem

So Maryna also spent an average of 25 minutes per problem.

Therefore, Sonia and Maryna spent the same amount of time writing per problem at the unit rate of 20 min.1 problem.
