Total number of seed packets = 4 packets.

Fraction of total 4 packet he want to plant = 1/5th of total number of packets.

Rayan used division operation is correct but when we write division expression it is importent to have correct number in correct position.

When we write division expression, we have a dividend, and a divisor.

The positions of the dividend is on left and divisor is on the right side of the division sign.

In the given problem total number of 4 packets are being divided into 1/5 fractions.

So, We need to divide 4 by 1/5.

4 is the divided and 1/5 is the divisor there.

Therefore, 4 should be on left and 1/5 on right side of division sign.

So, the correct expression should be 4 divided by 1/5.

4 ÷ 1/5.
