Step 1 . Given

The given ratio is $\frac{80 oz}{2.5 servings}$ .

Step 2 . To determine

We have to determine the unit rate.

Step 3 . Calculation

We can find the unit rate by making the denominator = 1.

$\begin{array}{l} \frac{80 oz}{2.5 servings} \\ = \frac{80 oz \div 2.5}{2.5 servings \div 2.5} [divide the numerator and denominator by 2.5] \\ = \frac{32 oz}{1 serving} \end{array}$

So, the unit rate of $\frac{80 oz}{2.5 servings}$ is 32 oz per serving.
