    The rate of skins per lira is 5 (because 40/8=5), and the rate of liras per skin is 0.2 (because 8/40=0.2).

    5 skins per lira

    ⅕ liras per skin (⅕ = 0.2)

    Step-by-step explanation:

    skins : liras

    40 : 8

    X : 1

    1 : Y

    40/8 = X/1

    X = 5 skins per lira

    40/8 = 1/Y

    Y = 8/40

    Y = ⅕ or 0.2 liras per skin
