i don’t know how to do x/5 on delta

If you're looking to enter the expression \( \frac{x}{5} \) on a platform like Delta Math, you typically can do it using fraction notation. Here’s how you can input that expression:

  1. Using the Division Symbol: You can simply type x/5, as most platforms will interpret the forward slash (/) as division.

  2. Using a Fraction Tool: If the platform has a specific tool for fractions (which may look like a box with a line separating two spaces), you can click on that and enter x in the top space and 5 in the bottom space.

If you are facing a specific issue or if Delta Math requires a different format, please provide more details so that I can assist you better!

am on mobile

If you are on mobile and trying to input \( \frac{x}{5} \) on a platform like Delta Math, you can try the following:

  1. Using Text Input:

    • Simply type x/5. Most platforms recognize this format for division.

  2. Using a Fraction Button (if available):

    • Look for a fraction button (often looks like a box divided by a line) in the keyboard or text editor. Tap on it, if available, and it should allow you to enter the numerator (top number) and the denominator (bottom number).

  3. Typing the Expression:

    • If the platform allows, entering the expression as x ÷ 5 may also be accepted, depending on how the platform processes mathematical expressions.

If these methods are not working, the specific app or platform may have its own requirements. If you’re having trouble, please let me know what you see, and I’ll do my best to provide additional guidance!
