Plese help! I need to get these numbers by using five 5's: 18, 17, and 14. I would really appreciate it if you would could come up with mostly 17 because that's the one I really need right now.
For Example:
5 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 5= 25
*You can use any symbols you would like and change the 5's to anything you'd like(fractions, decimals...)
Thank you so much to anyone that contributes in helping me by getting these numbers. I really have tried and I just can't get them! Thanks again!

18: (5!/5) - 5 - (5/5)
(5!, in case you didn't know, is 5*4*3*2*1, or 120)
17: (55 + 5)/5 + 5
14: 5 + 5 + 5 - (5/5)

To get 14: 5+5+5-(5/5)=14

I think here is the answer.
5.4+5.4+5.4+5.4+5.4=17
