1.6/25 is equal to e/80
Use the equal sign.
6/25 = e/80
Cross multiply:
25e = 480
e = 96/5

Do the others the same way.

Some website rules you won't like:
You are limited to one problem per submission. [One problem at a time.]
To be sure we understand each other, one means one not two or three or more.
No more than 4 submissions daily. [4 problems a day]
No similar problems. [Different type problems only.]
None of those is weird nor difficult.
But you should write them in math talk.
6/25=e/80
25e=6*80
e=6*80/25
e=480/25
