answer:

fourth option\

step-by-step explanation:

answer:

7n - 1/5

step-by-step explanation:

7n - 1/5

we are told that there is one-fifth less than the product of 7 and a number (represented by the variable: n)

first of all, we are told that there is a product of 7 and a number (n). the word product indicates multiplication. so therefore the product of 7 and a number would be represented as: 7n

now, we are told that there is one-fifth less than the product. this means that the product has 1/5 less than its original value. this indicates subtraction.

thus, we can deduce that the answer is: 7n - 1/5

1/6
