A unitary rate must specifically have a denominator of one. Unitary rates are used in mathematical operations and conversions. Any other ratio can have any number as the denominator.

Is rate and ratio the same meaning?

No, rate and ratio are not the same. A ratio compares two quantities to show their relative sizes, often expressed as a fraction or with a colon (e.g., 3:2). A rate, on the other hand, is a specific kind of ratio that compares two different units, such as speed (miles per hour) or price per item. While both involve comparisons, their contexts and units differ.
