Solution

Numbers divisible by 5 are 5,10,15,20,25,30

We need to write these as sum of 2 prime numbers less than 20

i.e., using 2,3,5,7,11,13,17,19
5=2+3 where 2 and 3 are prime

10=3+7 where 3 and 7 are prime

15=2+13 where 2 and 13 are prime

20=3+17 where 3 and 17 are prime

20=7+13 where 7 and 13 are prime

So pairs are

(2,3),(3,7),(2,13),(3,17),(7,13)
