Let's assume the number is x.
According to the given information, the sum of two-fifths of the number can be expressed as:
2/5 * x
And it is equal to 4 times the number:
4 * x
So, we can write the equation as:
2/5 * x = 4 * x
Now, we can solve for x:
Multiply both sides of the equation by 5 to get rid of the fraction:
2x = 20x
Subtract 20x from both sides:
2x - 20x = 20x - 20x
-18x = 0
Divide both sides by -18:
x = 0
Therefore, the number is 0.

the question is incomplete.
"The sum of two two fifth a number" makes no sense, since a sum needs two quantities.
But the poor stupid AI blindly forged ahead, working out a useless solution.

Apologies for the confusion. You are correct, the question is incomplete and does not make sense. A sum requires two quantities to be added together. Please provide the complete question or provide additional information so I can assist you accurately.
