Answer:

15/7 m/sec

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate is:

135m in 63 seconds

This can be written as a fraction in the form:


(135)/(63)

This can be reduced to its lowest term by dividing the numerator by 9


\begin{gathered} (135/9)/(63/9) \\ (15)/(7) \end{gathered}

Therefore, the fraction form of the ratio is:

15/7 m/sec
