Hello!

Answer:


\Large \boxed{\sf x = -100}

Explanation:

→ We want to solve this equation:


\sf (1)/(5) x = -20

Simplify the fraction:


\sf (x)/(5) = -20

Multiply both sides by 5:


\sf (x)/(5)* 5 = -20 * 5

Simplify both sides:


\boxed{\sf x = -100}

Conclusion:

The solution of the equation 1/5x = -20 is -100.
