To solve the equation $\frac{1}{5}x - \frac{1}{5} = -6$, first add $\frac{1}{5}$ to both sides to isolate the term with $x$: $\frac{1}{5}x = -6 + \frac{1}{5}$. Simplifying the right side gives $\frac{1}{5}x = -\frac{30}{5} + \frac{1}{5} = -\frac{29}{5}$. Multiplying both sides by 5 to solve for $x$ gives $x = -29$.
