1. The problem is to solve an equation or find an unknown using the unit method. 2. The unit method involves finding the value of a single unit and then using it to find the value of multiple units. 3. For example, if 5 apples cost 20, then the cost of 1 apple is calculated as $$\frac{20}{5} = 4$$. 4. Using this, the cost of 8 apples would be $$8 \times 4 = 32$$. 5. This method can be applied to any problem where a total quantity and total value are given, and the value per unit is needed. 6. Please provide the specific problem or values to apply the unit method for a detailed solution.
