To solve the equation \( \frac{r}{5} - 6 = -1 \), we can follow these steps:

  1. Add 6 to both sides of the equation: \[ \frac{r}{5} - 6 + 6 = -1 + 6 \] This simplifies to: \[ \frac{r}{5} = 5 \]

  2. Multiply both sides by 5 to isolate \( r \): \[ r = 5 \times 5 \] This gives: \[ r = 25 \]

Thus, the solution is \( r = 25 \).
