1. **State the problem:** Lynn can type a whole page in $p$ minutes. We want to find out what fraction of the page she can type in 5 minutes. 2. **Understand the rate:** Her typing rate is 1 page per $p$ minutes, which means she types $\frac{1}{p}$ page in 1 minute. 3. **Calculate the fraction in 5 minutes:** In 5 minutes, she will type $5 \times \frac{1}{p} = \frac{5}{p}$ pages. 4. **Interpretation:** So, in 5 minutes, Lynn can type $\frac{5}{p}$ of the page.
