Solution Steps

Rewrite 5^{2} as 5\times 5. Cancel out 5 in both numerator and denominator.

$$\frac{\frac{1}{5}}{5^{2-2}}=1$$

Subtract 2 from 2 to get 0.

$$\frac{\frac{1}{5}}{5^{0}}=1$$

Calculate 5 to the power of 0 and get 1.

$$\frac{\frac{1}{5}}{1}=1$$

Anything divided by one gives itself.

$$\frac{1}{5}=1$$

Convert 1 to fraction \frac{5}{5}.

$$\frac{1}{5}=\frac{5}{5}$$

Compare \frac{1}{5} and \frac{5}{5}.
