Hi!
5x = 1/4
5x = 0.25
Divide by 5 on both sides
5x/5 = 0.25/5
x = 0.05
Convert 0.05 to a fraction
5/100
Simplify the fraction
1/20
The answer is X=1/20
Hope this helps! :)

- First create an expression for the product of 5 and a number x is 1/4.
- The product of 5 and a number x: multiplication between 5 and the number x (5x)
- is 1/4: = 1/4
- Create the equation: 5x = 1/4
- To solve this equation, divide both sides by 5 to isolate and solve for x.
- x = 1/4 ÷ 5 ⇒ 1/4 × 1/5 = 1/20
x = 1/20
is your answer.
