Answer:

The percent should be written as a fraction before dividing.

5 ÷ 20% = 5 ÷
(1)/(5) = 25

(I think the following is correct haha. I know what to do, but the exact wording they used confused me slightly. Have a nice day!)

The { percent } should be written as a { fraction } before dividing.

5 ÷ 20% = { 5 ÷
(1)/(5)} = { 25 }
