Please define for us molar, the definition will tell you what math to do.  Bit of trivia for you:  5 M is 5 molar.  But 5m is 5 molal, which is different.
Hey, I'm not judging.  I just like to shoot straight.  I'm a man of science.

Good.  You have 5 moles in 1 liter.  You want much less.  How will you do it?

Start with a simpler question.  Say you water 1 molar, that's just one fifth.  The math is the same.
