Answer:

2

Explanation:

Solve. Technically, there are two methods. You can first multiply, or first divide.

Essentially the question is:

(5 * 2)/5

or

2 * (5/5)

Solve. Remember to follow PEMDAS. First solve the parenthesis, then simplify:

(5 * 2)/5 = (10)/5 = 2

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

2 is your answer.
