Question 64

Choose a letter x, y, z, p etc...., wherever necessary, for the unknown (variable) and write the corresponding expressions for the given statement:

Multiple of 5.

Answer 1

The multiples of a whole number are found by taking the product of any counting number and that whole number.

$\begin{array}{cc}Number\left(n\right)& Multiplyingby5\\ 0& 0\times 5=0\\ 1& 1\times 5=5\\ 2& 2\times 5=10\\ 3& 3\times 5=15\\ 4& 4\times 5=20\\ 5& 5\times 5=25\end{array}$

Analysing the table above, we can understand that multiple of 5 can be written as 5n, where n is any whole number.
