Answer:

1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

So, we can create this representation of a in relation with b, since we know a is smaller than b by 1/5 of b, we can say that a is equal to 4/5 of b, right?

a = \frac{4}{5} b

To invert the ratio, we need to isolate B, so we multiply both sides of the equation by 5/4

a * \frac{5}{4} = * \frac{5}{4} * \frac{4}{5} b = b\\ \\ b = \frac{5}{4} a

So, we have b being 1/4 bigger than a.

They are algebraic symbols or known as unknown number. There is no true value for them. The value of algebraic symbols are based on equations

ie. 1+x = 2

First, we isolate the x by canceling the +1 FROM BOTH SIDES(Balance method) by -1 ON BOTH SIDES.

1+x-1 = 2-1

So we are left with the x on the left side, and a single number on the right side. Therefore, our calculation is complete.

x = 1


More complex cases would be

2y-3 = 45

First, we need to isolate the algebraic symbol, which is 2y (yx2) by +3 ON BOTH SIDES

2y-3+3 = 45+3

2y = 48

WE ARE NOT DONE! 2y=48 is still an equation. Therefore, to isolate the y, we need to divide BOTH SIDES by 2

2y/2 = 48/2

y = 24

There is no true or absolute or definite value for algebraic symbols like x,y,z,a,c,t,h,d etc. They are used to represent unknown numbers.
