Answer:

Please read the answer below.

Explanation:

To know if a number is part of the multiples of 5, we have two options: the first and the most difficult is to divide the number by 5 and if the module is 0 and the result is a whole number, then the number is a multiple of 5. For example, if we divide 30 by 5, the result is 6 exact and therefore, 30 is a multiple of 5.

The second way to identify if a number is part of the multiples of 5 (and for me, the simplest) is if it ends at 0 or 5.

For example 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, all these numbers, are multiples of 5 because their termination as we observe is 0 or 5.
