Step 2.3.1.2.1

Factor $5$ out of $25$ .

$a = \frac{5 \cdot 1}{5 \cdot 5}$

Step 2.3.1.2.2

Cancel the common factor.

$a = \frac{5 \cdot 1}{5 \cdot 5}$

Step 2.3.1.2.3

Rewrite the expression.

$a = \frac{1}{5}$

$a = \frac{1}{5}$

$a = \frac{1}{5}$

$a = \frac{1}{5}$

$a = \frac{1}{5}$

Step 3

The result can be shown in multiple forms.

Exact Form:

$a = \frac{1}{5}$

Decimal Form:

$a = 0.2$
