I don't understand these two problems help:

1. One-fifth of a number is 14. Find the number.

2. One-fourth of a number is -60. Find the number.

Respuesta :

One-fifth means [tex] \frac{1}{5} [/tex] so one-fifth of 14 is just one-fifth * 14. 1/5*14=14/5.

One-fourth means 0.25 or a quarter so 0.25*-60 or 1/4*-60=-60/4=-15.
