If you want to calculate 1/5 of a lakh (one fifth of a lakh), then you want to divide one lakh (1,00,000) into 5 equal pieces and calculate the sum of 1 of those pieces.

Therefore, 1/5 of a lakh is the quotient of one lakh divided by 5, multiplied by 1. Here is the math and the answer:

(1,00,000 ÷ 5) × 1 = 20,000
1/5 of a lakh = 20,000
