Let what = x.
Let the word "is" be the = sign
The word "of" means multiplication in math.
one fifth is the same 1/5.
We have this equation:
x = (1/5) times $670.00
We need to find x.
What is the value of 1/5 in decimal form?
Well, 1/5 = 0.2
How did I get 0.2? I divided 1 by 2.
Clear?
Multiply 0.2 times $670.00 = $134.00
Done!

Hi,
For this question, we need to remember that one-fifth is notated as: 1 / 5.
Then, notice that the problem says OF which means that we'll be multiplying ( 1 / 5 ) times $670.00 therefore, we have:
( 1 / 5 ) x $670.00 = $134.00
FINAL ANSWER: $134.00
I hope that helps you out! Please let me know if you have any other questions!
Sincerely,
Andrew
