Question 901404

{{{1/5}}} of a number {{{n}}} is {{{(1/5)n}}} or {{{n/5}}}

when {{{2}}} is added to {{{n/5}}} we have {{{n/5+2}}} and that is equal to {{{3.2}}}

so, your equation will be:  {{{n/5+2=3.2}}} ...now solve for {{{n}}}


{{{n/5=3.2-2}}}

{{{n/5=1.2}}}

{{{n=1.2*5}}}

{{{n=6.0}}}

check:

if {{{n=6}}} than {{{n/5=6/5=1.2}}}
if you add {{{2}}} to it you got {{{1.2+2=3.2}}} which was given
