Ah, a fifth on a ruler is a wonderful thing to find! Just imagine your ruler divided into five equal parts. The first of those parts is your one-fifth mark. It's a special spot that can help you measure things with ease and precision. Just remember, there's no mistakes, only happy little measurements!
Look at the markings between zero inches and one inch. There should be a larger mark right in the middle between the two. That's 1/2 (one half) inch. Right in the middle between 0 and 1/2 is a smaller mark - that's the 1/4 (one quarter) inch mark. On the other hand, the mark halfway between 1/2 and 1 inch is the 3/4 (three quarter) inch mark. In other words, the distance from zero to one inch can be divided into four equal steps with three marks in between; those are, respectively, 1/4 inch, 2/4 inch (= 1/2 inch), and 3/4 inch. 4/4 inch is equal to 1 inch.
