Question

Write true or false for the following statement:

$5$ is a multiple of $15.$.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B False

Multiples of $15$ are $15,30,45,60,75......$

Factors of $15$ are

$$\begin{gathered} 1\times 15=15 \\ 5\times 3=15 \\ 3\times 5=15 \\ 15\times 1=15 \end{gathered}$$

The factors of $15$ are $1,3,5,15.$

Thus, $5$ is a factor of $15$ not amultiple of $15$

Hence, the given statement is false.
