I hope you mean 1/5 when you say 1 5. If that's what you mean, then both, Joshua and Melanie, are correct because, both of their equations are the same.
Joshua's - <span>8 ÷ 1/5 = 40 (Since we can divide a number by fraction, we use this rule: keep, change flip. When we use that Joshua's equation turns into 8 * 5/1 = 8*5 = 40, same as Melanie's.)</span>

Complete Question
We can calculate EEE, the amount of euros that has the same value as DDD U.S. Dollars, using the equation
E= 17/20 D
a) How many euros have the same value as 1 U.S. Dollar? euros
b) How many U.S. Dollars have the same value as 1 euro? dollars
Answer:
a) 0.85 euros
b) 1.18 dollars
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation is given as:
E= 17/20 D
a) How many euros have the same value as 1 U.S. Dollar? euros
E = 17/20D
D = 1 dollar
Hence:
E = 17/20 × 1
E = 0.85 euros
b) How many U.S. Dollars have the same value as 1 euro? dollars
E = 17/20D
E = 1 euro
1 = 17/20D
D = 1 ÷ 17/20
D = 1 × 20/17
D = 1.1764705882 dollars
D = 1.18 dollars
