Solution

The correct option is A True
We know, the units place of the cube of a number will be the same as the cube of the units place of the number.

Here, the units place of the number is 5 (given).
Then, 53=5×5×5=125, whose last/units digit is also 5.

So, if a number ends with 5, then its cube ends with 5.
That is, the statement is true.
Hence, option A is correct.
