in p minutes, no. of pages she can type = 1
in 1 min , no of pages = 1/p
thus in 5 mins, no of pages = 1/p X 5 = 5/p
got it?

p minutes = 1 page
divide by p
1 minute = 1/p page
Multiply by 5
5 minutes = 5/p page
Therefore, in 5 minutes she can do 5/p of the page

5/p
if she can type 1 page in 1 minute... then.. she can type 5 pages in 5 minutes
(pages/minute) *minutes = pages
(1 page/ p minutes) * 5 minutes = 5*1 pages/p = 5/p pages
