Answer:

Unit rate: 13 sit ups per minute

65 sit ups can be done in 5 minutes

Explanation:

Find the unit rate by dividing 26 by 2

26/2

= 13

This means 13 sit ups can be done in 1 minute.

To find how many can be done in 5 minutes, multiply 13 by 5.

13(5)

= 65

So, the unit rate is 13 sit ups per minute, and 65 sit ups can be done in 5 minutes.
