Braelyn · Answer 1

N (1/5) = (2/15)

divide both sides by (1/5)

n = (2/15) / (1/5)

to divide fractions, cross multiply, e. g. (2*5) / (15*1) = 10/15

n = 10/15 = 2/3 or 0.666666.

Gretel · Answer 2

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

1/5n=2/15

Step 2: Multiply both sides by 5.

5 * (1/5n) = 5 * (2/15)

And you get n=2/3

Answer is n=2/3
