Answer:

250 m/min

Explanation:

Split rate = $\dfrac{2\text{min}}{500\text{m}}$

This means in 2 minutes they will cover 500 meters.

The rowing rate is given by $\dfrac{\text{m}}{\text{min}}$ which is the inverse of the first expression

$\\\Rightarrow \text{Rowing rate}=\dfrac{\text{m}}{\text{min}}\\\Rightarrow \text{Rowing rate}=\frac{500}{2}\\\Rightarrow \text{Rowing rate}=250\ m/min$

Hence, the rowing rate is 250 m/min
