Solution:

Consider you have to learn counting of number 5 by the method of skip counting.

The multiples of 5 are 5,10,15,20,25,30,35,40,45,50.

First mark numbers on number line.Circle number 5 on it.Add 5 to 5. Mark 10 on number line. Or move 5 units in right direction of 5. Keep moving 5 units each time . If you have to find first five multiples of 5 ,move 5 units 5 times on number line.
