I don't know. Let's calculate it together:

60 divided by (the number) = 50

Multiply each side by (the number) :

60 = (the number) x 50

Divide each side by 50 :

60 / 50 = The number

60/50 = 6/5 = 1.2

60:50=(60)/(50)=(6)/(5)=\boxed{1(1)/(5)\ or\ decimal\ form\ 1(1\cdot2)/(5\cdot2)=1(2)/(10)=1.2}
