One fifth of something is essentially dividing a total by five.

Since we have twenty-five total people, one fifth of that is just five.

5 X 5 = 25, and 25 / 5 = 5

Since five people pre-ordered, the remaining twenty people did NOT pre-order.

The answer to your question is 20.

Hope this helps!

1/5 of 25 is 5
5 people preordered
25-5=20
