$<u>Your Question - </u>$

One-fourth of a number is 10. What is one-fifth of the number?

$<u>Solution - </u>$

Let the number be 'x'.


Then, one-fourth of number

= ¼ × x
= x/4

But, one fourth of the number = 10(given)

So,
x/4 = 10
=> x = 10×4
=> x = 40

So, the number = x = 40

Now, one-fifth of 40
= 1/5 × 40
= 40/5
= 8.

Hence, one-fifth of the number i.e. 40 = 8.
