1Identify the numbers that can fill the circles such that the numbers in the squares are the products or the quotients of the numbers in the circles.Show solution
Note: The figure is not visible in the OCR. However, the strategy is as follows:

Given: Numbers in squares are either the product or the quotient of the numbers in the adjacent circles.

Method:
- If the square shows a product, find two numbers whose multiplication gives that product and place them in the circles.
- If the square shows a quotient, find two numbers such that dividing one by the other gives that quotient.

Example: If a square shows 24, possible circle pairs are: (4,6)(4, 6), (3,8)(3, 8), (2,12)(2, 12), etc. since 4×6=244 \times 6 = 24.

Students should use multiplication tables to identify the correct pairs for each square shown in the figure.

Let Us Do (Section 1 — Multiplication and Division Relationship)

1Solve the following multiplication problems. Write two division statements in each case. Observe the relationship between the divisor, dividend, and quotient.Show solution
Note: The specific multiplication problems are in images not visible in the OCR. The method is illustrated below with examples.

Concept: Every multiplication statement gives two related division statements.

Example 1: 6×7=426 \times 7 = 42
- Division statement 1: 42÷6=742 \div 6 = 7
- Division statement 2: 42÷7=642 \div 7 = 6

Example 2: 8×9=728 \times 9 = 72
- Division statement 1: 72÷8=972 \div 8 = 9
- Division statement 2: 72÷9=872 \div 9 = 8

Example 3: 5×12=605 \times 12 = 60
- Division statement 1: 60÷5=1260 \div 5 = 12
- Division statement 2: 60÷12=560 \div 12 = 5

Observation: If A×B=CA \times B = C, then C÷A=BC \div A = B and C÷B=AC \div B = A. The dividend is the product, and the divisor and quotient are the two factors.
2Solve the following division problems. Notice the patterns and discuss in class. Fill the place value chart:

| Problem | H | T | O |
|---|---|---|---|
| 40 ÷ 10 = | | | 4 |
| 400 ÷ 10 = | | 4 | 0 |
| 4000 ÷ 10 = | 4 | 0 | 0 |
| 700 ÷ 70 = | | | |
| 1400 ÷ 100 = | | | |
| 220 ÷ 20 = | | | |
| 2200 ÷ 20 = | | | |

Also fill:
| Problem | H | T | O |
|---|---|---|---|
| 110 ÷ 11 = | | | |
| 860 ÷ 86 = | | | |
| 7500 ÷ 750 = | | | |
| 8800 ÷ 88 = | | | |
| 2400 ÷ 24 = | | | |
| 440 ÷ 22 = | | | |
Show solution
Part 1 — Place Value Chart (First Table):

40÷10=4H: —, T: —, O: 440 \div 10 = 4 \quad \Rightarrow \text{H: —, T: —, O: 4}
400÷10=40H: —, T: 4, O: 0400 \div 10 = 40 \quad \Rightarrow \text{H: —, T: 4, O: 0}
4000÷10=400H: 4, T: 0, O: 04000 \div 10 = 400 \quad \Rightarrow \text{H: 4, T: 0, O: 0}
700÷70=10H: —, T: 1, O: 0700 \div 70 = 10 \quad \Rightarrow \text{H: —, T: 1, O: 0}
1400÷100=14H: —, T: 1, O: 41400 \div 100 = 14 \quad \Rightarrow \text{H: —, T: 1, O: 4}
220÷20=11H: —, T: 1, O: 1220 \div 20 = 11 \quad \Rightarrow \text{H: —, T: 1, O: 1}
2200÷20=110H: 1, T: 1, O: 02200 \div 20 = 110 \quad \Rightarrow \text{H: 1, T: 1, O: 0}

Pattern observed: When dividing by 10, the digits shift one place to the right (i.e., the number becomes 10 times smaller). When dividing by 100, digits shift two places to the right.

Part 2 — Place Value Chart (Second Table):

110÷11=10H: —, T: 1, O: 0110 \div 11 = 10 \quad \Rightarrow \text{H: —, T: 1, O: 0}
860÷86=10H: —, T: 1, O: 0860 \div 86 = 10 \quad \Rightarrow \text{H: —, T: 1, O: 0}
7500÷750=10H: —, T: 1, O: 07500 \div 750 = 10 \quad \Rightarrow \text{H: —, T: 1, O: 0}
8800÷88=100H: 1, T: 0, O: 08800 \div 88 = 100 \quad \Rightarrow \text{H: 1, T: 0, O: 0}
2400÷24=100H: 1, T: 0, O: 02400 \div 24 = 100 \quad \Rightarrow \text{H: 1, T: 0, O: 0}
440÷22=20H: —, T: 2, O: 0440 \div 22 = 20 \quad \Rightarrow \text{H: —, T: 2, O: 0}

Pattern observed: When the divisor is exactly 110\frac{1}{10} of the dividend, the quotient is always 10. When the divisor is exactly 1100\frac{1}{100} of the dividend, the quotient is 100. The quotients are multiples of 10 or 100 in these cases.

Let Us Do (Word Problems and Puzzles)

1Sabina cycles 160 km in 20 days and the same distance each day. How many kilometres does she cycle each day?Show solution
Given: Total distance = 160 km, Number of days = 20

Formula: Distance per day =Total distance÷Number of days= \text{Total distance} \div \text{Number of days}

Distance per day=160÷20\text{Distance per day} = 160 \div 20

=8 km= 8 \text{ km}

Answer: Sabina cycles 8 km each day.
2How many notes of ₹100 does Seema need to carry if she wants to buy coconuts worth ₹4200?Show solution
Given: Total amount = ₹4200, Value of each note = ₹100

Formula: Number of notes =Total amount÷Value of one note= \text{Total amount} \div \text{Value of one note}

Number of notes=4200÷100=42\text{Number of notes} = 4200 \div 100 = 42

Answer: Seema needs 42 notes of ₹100.
3The owner of an electric store has decided to distribute ₹5500 equally amongst 5 of his employees as a Diwali gift. What amount will each employee get? What will happen if he distributes the same amount of money among 10 employees? Will each employee get more or less? How much money would he have to distribute if everyone must get the same amount as earlier?Show solution
Part (i): Amount each employee gets (5 employees)

Amount per employee=5500÷5=1100\text{Amount per employee} = 5500 \div 5 = ₹1100

Part (ii): If distributed among 10 employees:

Amount per employee=5500÷10=550\text{Amount per employee} = 5500 \div 10 = ₹550

Each employee gets less (₹550 instead of ₹1100) because the same amount is shared among more people.

Part (iii): If each of the 10 employees must get ₹1100 (same as before):

Total amount needed=1100×10=11000\text{Total amount needed} = 1100 \times 10 = ₹11000

Answer: Each of the 5 employees gets ₹1100. With 10 employees, each gets only ₹550. To give ₹1100 to each of 10 employees, the owner would need to distribute ₹11,000.
4Place the numbers 1 to 8 in the boxes so that all the four operations — division, multiplication, addition and subtraction — are correct. No number must be repeated.Show solution
Note: The exact box arrangement is in images not visible in the OCR. The general approach is:

Strategy:
- List numbers 1 to 8: {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8}
- Try combinations that satisfy all four operations simultaneously.
- Use trial and error, starting with division (most restrictive).

One possible solution (commonly accepted):
8÷4=2(division)8 \div 4 = 2 \quad (\text{division})
2×3=6(multiplication)2 \times 3 = 6 \quad (\text{multiplication})
6+1=7(addition)6 + 1 = 7 \quad (\text{addition})
72=5(subtraction)7 - 2 = 5 \quad (\text{subtraction})
Numbers used: 8, 4, 2, 3, 6, 1, 7, 5 — all different, all from 1–8. ✓

Note: There may be more than one valid answer. Students should verify that each number from 1 to 8 is used exactly once.

Strategy 1 — Split into convenient parts:
1248÷6:1248=1200+481248 \div 6: \quad 1248 = 1200 + 48
1200÷6=200,48÷6=81200 \div 6 = 200, \quad 48 \div 6 = 8
1248÷6=200+8=208\therefore 1248 \div 6 = 200 + 8 = \mathbf{208}

Strategy 2 — Round up and subtract:
1992÷4:1992=200081992 \div 4: \quad 1992 = 2000 - 8
2000÷4=500,8÷4=22000 \div 4 = 500, \quad 8 \div 4 = 2
1992÷4=5002=498\therefore 1992 \div 4 = 500 - 2 = \mathbf{498}

Strategy 3 — Repeated halving (for divisor 4):
128÷4:Half of 128=64,Half of 64=32128 \div 4: \quad \text{Half of } 128 = 64, \quad \text{Half of } 64 = 32

Susie's Farm in Kerala

1Susie and Sunitha harvested 1,117 coconuts in April. They sold 582 coconuts equally to 6 regular customers. How many coconuts did each customer get? Each bag can hold 25 coconuts. How many bags would be needed to pack 97 coconuts?Show solution
Part (i): Coconuts per customer

582÷6=97582 \div 6 = 97

Verification using partial quotients:
6×90=540,582540=426 \times 90 = 540, \quad 582 - 540 = 42
6×7=426 \times 7 = 42
582÷6=90+7=97\therefore 582 \div 6 = 90 + 7 = \mathbf{97}

Each customer gets 97 coconuts.

Part (ii): Bags needed for 97 coconuts

97÷25=3 remainder 2297 \div 25 = 3 \text{ remainder } 22
25×3=75,9775=22\because 25 \times 3 = 75, \quad 97 - 75 = 22

3 full bags hold 75 coconuts. The remaining 22 coconuts need 1 more bag.

Total bags needed=3+1=4 bags\therefore \text{Total bags needed} = 3 + 1 = \mathbf{4 \text{ bags}}
2They pack the remaining coconuts for drying and extracting oil. They can pack 25 coconuts in each bag. How many bags will they need to pack the remaining coconuts? (Remaining = 1117582=5351117 - 582 = 535 coconuts)Show solution
Step 1: Find remaining coconuts.
1117582=535 coconuts1117 - 582 = 535 \text{ coconuts}

Step 2: Find number of bags needed.
535÷25=?535 \div 25 = ?

Using partial quotients:
25×20=50025 \times 20 = 500
535500=35535 - 500 = 35
25×1=2525 \times 1 = 25
3525=1035 - 25 = 10

535÷25=21 remainder 10\therefore 535 \div 25 = 21 \text{ remainder } 10

21 full bags hold 21×25=52521 \times 25 = 525 coconuts. The remaining 10 coconuts need 1 more bag.

Total bags needed=21+1=22 bags\therefore \text{Total bags needed} = 21 + 1 = \mathbf{22 \text{ bags}}

Let Us Solve (Word Problems — Party, Trip, Money)

1Rani is planning to host a party. She estimates that 250 guests will attend. She plans to serve one samosa to each guest. Samosas are available in packs of 6 or 8. Which pack should Rani buy? Explain your answer.Show solution
Given: 250 guests, 1 samosa each, packs of 6 or 8.

For packs of 6:
250÷6=41 remainder 4250 \div 6 = 41 \text{ remainder } 4
She needs 42 packs of 6 → 42×6=25242 \times 6 = 252 samosas (2 extra)

For packs of 8:
250÷8=31 remainder 2250 \div 8 = 31 \text{ remainder } 2
She needs 32 packs of 8 → 32×8=25632 \times 8 = 256 samosas (6 extra)

Comparison:
- Packs of 6: 42 packs, 252 samosas, 2 extra
- Packs of 8: 32 packs, 256 samosas, 6 extra

Answer: Rani should buy packs of 6 because she will have fewer extra samosas (only 2 extra vs 6 extra), which means less wastage. She needs to buy 42 packs of 6.

Kalpavruksha Coconut Oil

1Susie and Sunitha used 4376 coconuts for extracting coconut oil. They can extract 1 litre of oil from 8 coconuts. What quantity of oil were they able to extract?Show solution
Given: Total coconuts = 4376, Coconuts per litre = 8

Litres of oil=4376÷8\text{Litres of oil} = 4376 \div 8

Using partial quotients:
8×500=4000,43764000=3768 \times 500 = 4000, \quad 4376 - 4000 = 376
8×40=320,376320=568 \times 40 = 320, \quad 376 - 320 = 56
8×7=56,5656=08 \times 7 = 56, \quad 56 - 56 = 0

4376÷8=500+40+7=547\therefore 4376 \div 8 = 500 + 40 + 7 = \mathbf{547}

Answer: They extracted 547 litres of coconut oil.

Let Us Do (Missing Numbers and Riddle)

1Find the missing numbers such that there is no remainder. (The division problems are shown in images — general method given.)Show solution
Note: The specific problems are in images not visible in the OCR. The general method is:

Concept: If N÷D=QN \div D = Q with no remainder, then N=D×QN = D \times Q.

Method:
- If the dividend is missing: Multiply divisor × quotient.
- If the divisor is missing: Divide dividend by quotient.
- If the quotient is missing: Divide dividend by divisor.

Example: _÷6=12_=6×12=72\_ \div 6 = 12 \Rightarrow \_ = 6 \times 12 = 72

Example: 84÷_=7_=84÷7=1284 \div \_ = 7 \Rightarrow \_ = 84 \div 7 = 12

Students should apply this method to each problem shown in the images.

Let Us Solve (Theatre, Ice Cream, Biscuits, Division)

1A theatre company can accommodate 45 people during one show.
(a) A total of 475 people bought tickets for a puppet show. How many shows are needed to seat all the people who bought tickets?
(b) There are 2 shows in a day. How many days will be needed to accommodate all the people?
Show solution
(a) Number of shows needed:
475÷45=10 remainder 25475 \div 45 = 10 \text{ remainder } 25
45×10=450,475450=25\because 45 \times 10 = 450, \quad 475 - 450 = 25

10 shows seat 450 people. The remaining 25 people need 1 more show.
Total shows needed=10+1=11 shows\therefore \text{Total shows needed} = 10 + 1 = \mathbf{11 \text{ shows}}

(b) Number of days needed (2 shows per day):
11÷2=5 remainder 111 \div 2 = 5 \text{ remainder } 1

5 days have 10 shows. The 11th show needs 1 more day.
Total days needed=5+1=6 days\therefore \text{Total days needed} = 5 + 1 = \mathbf{6 \text{ days}}

6A company in Mumbai organises cycle rallies from Mumbai to Panjim, Goa every year. They aim to cover 576 km in 12 days.
(a) How much distance should they cycle every day, to cover the distance evenly?
(b) After reaching Ratnagiri, they rest for 1 day. How much distance should they cycle each day to reach Goa in 4 days? Assume that they cover the distance evenly.
Show solution
(a) Distance per day (12 days):
576÷12=48 km576 \div 12 = 48 \text{ km}
12×48=576\because 12 \times 48 = 576

Answer: They should cycle 48 km per day.

(b) Distance per day after Ratnagiri:

Distance covered up to Ratnagiri (before rest day):
- They have been cycling for some days. The problem states they rest after reaching Ratnagiri and then need 4 more days to reach Goa.
- Total trip = 12 days cycling + 1 rest day.
- Assume Ratnagiri is at the halfway point or that the remaining distance after Ratnagiri needs to be covered in 4 days.

Distance covered in first part (12 - 4 = 8 days at 48 km/day):
8×48=384 km8 \times 48 = 384 \text{ km}

Remaining distance:
576384=192 km576 - 384 = 192 \text{ km}

Distance per day for remaining 4 days:
192÷4=48 km per day192 \div 4 = 48 \text{ km per day}

Answer: They should still cycle 48 km per day to cover the remaining distance in 4 days.

*(Note: The daily distance remains the same because the total remaining distance and remaining days are proportional to the original plan.)*
7Given below are a few problems. Identify the missing information. Write the missing information and find the answer.
(a) A fruit vendor sells 6 baskets of mangoes. Each basket contains 12 mangoes. How much did the vendor earn in total?
(b) A school has 8 classrooms, and each classroom has an equal number of desks. How many desks are there in each classroom?
(c) Rahul buys 5 cricket bats for his team. The total bill is ₹3500. How much does one bat cost?
(d) A restaurant serves 125 plates of idlis in a day. The total earnings from selling all the idli plates is ₹6250. How many idlis are there in each plate?
Show solution
(a) Missing information: Price per mango (or price per basket)

Assuming price per mango = ₹10 (student fills this in):
Total mangoes=6×12=72\text{Total mangoes} = 6 \times 12 = 72
Total earnings=72×10=720\text{Total earnings} = 72 \times 10 = ₹720

(b) Missing information: Total number of desks in the school

Assuming total desks = 240 (student fills this in):
Desks per classroom=240÷8=30\text{Desks per classroom} = 240 \div 8 = 30

(c) No missing information — this problem is complete.
Cost of one bat=3500÷5=700\text{Cost of one bat} = 3500 \div 5 = ₹700

Answer: One bat costs ₹700.

(d) Missing information: Price per plate of idlis

The problem gives total earnings (₹6250) and number of plates (125), and asks for idlis per plate — but to find idlis per plate, we need the price per idli.

Assuming price per idli = ₹10 (student fills this in):
Price per plate=6250÷125=50\text{Price per plate} = 6250 \div 125 = ₹50
Idlis per plate=50÷10=5\text{Idlis per plate} = 50 \div 10 = 5

Answer: There are 5 idlis per plate (based on assumed price of ₹10 per idli).
8To make one bookshelf, a carpenter needs: 4 long wooden panels, 8 short wooden panels, 16 small clips, 4 large clips, 32 screws. The carpenter has: 264 long panels, 306 short panels, 2400 small clips, 120 large clips, 2800 screws. How many bookshelves can the carpenter make?Show solution
Find how many bookshelves each material allows:

Long panels: 264÷4=66 bookshelves\text{Long panels: } 264 \div 4 = 66 \text{ bookshelves}
Short panels: 306÷8=38 bookshelves (remainder 2)\text{Short panels: } 306 \div 8 = 38 \text{ bookshelves (remainder 2)}
Small clips: 2400÷16=150 bookshelves\text{Small clips: } 2400 \div 16 = 150 \text{ bookshelves}
Large clips: 120÷4=30 bookshelves\text{Large clips: } 120 \div 4 = 30 \text{ bookshelves}
Screws: 2800÷32=87 bookshelves (remainder 16)\text{Screws: } 2800 \div 32 = 87 \text{ bookshelves (remainder 16)}

The limiting factor is the material that allows the fewest bookshelves:
min(66,38,150,30,87)=30\min(66, 38, 150, 30, 87) = 30

Answer: The carpenter can make 30 bookshelves (limited by the large clips).

Mathematical Statements

1Find out whether the following statements are True (T) or False (F).
(a) 8×9=70+28 \times 9 = 70 + 2
(b) 206=7×320 - 6 = 7 \times 3
(c) 48÷3=4×448 \div 3 = 4 \times 4
(d) 899=90+089 - 9 = 90 + 0
(e) 25+10=451025 + 10 = 45 - 10
Show solution
(a) LHS: 8×9=728 \times 9 = 72; RHS: 70+2=7270 + 2 = 72
72=72True(T)72 = 72 \quad \Rightarrow \mathbf{True (T)}

(b) LHS: 206=1420 - 6 = 14; RHS: 7×3=217 \times 3 = 21
1421False(F)14 \neq 21 \quad \Rightarrow \mathbf{False (F)}

(c) LHS: 48÷3=1648 \div 3 = 16; RHS: 4×4=164 \times 4 = 16
16=16True(T)16 = 16 \quad \Rightarrow \mathbf{True (T)}

(d) LHS: 899=8089 - 9 = 80; RHS: 90+0=9090 + 0 = 90
8090False(F)80 \neq 90 \quad \Rightarrow \mathbf{False (F)}

(e) LHS: 25+10=3525 + 10 = 35; RHS: 4510=3545 - 10 = 35
35=35True(T)35 = 35 \quad \Rightarrow \mathbf{True (T)}
2Complete the following statements such that they are true.
(a) 7×6=_+177 \times 6 = \_ + 17
(b) 87+6=_×3187 + 6 = \_ \times 31
(c) 63+_=74463 + \_ = 74 - 4
(d) _÷9=16÷2\_ \div 9 = 16 \div 2
Show solution
(a) 7×6=427 \times 6 = 42
42=_+17_=4217=2542 = \_ + 17 \Rightarrow \_ = 42 - 17 = \mathbf{25}

(b) 87+6=9387 + 6 = 93
93=_×31_=93÷31=393 = \_ \times 31 \Rightarrow \_ = 93 \div 31 = \mathbf{3}

(c) 744=7074 - 4 = 70
63+_=70_=7063=763 + \_ = 70 \Rightarrow \_ = 70 - 63 = \mathbf{7}

(d) 16÷2=816 \div 2 = 8
_÷9=8_=8×9=72\_ \div 9 = 8 \Rightarrow \_ = 8 \times 9 = \mathbf{72}
3Think about the following statements:
(a) 'When two odd numbers are added, the sum is even.' Find 5 examples. Can you find an example to show it is false? (Always true)
(b) 'Multiplying a number by 2 can give an odd number.' Give examples. Can you find any? (Never true)
(c) 'Halving a number always leads to an even number.' Give 3 examples for and 3 against. (Sometimes true)
Show solution
(a) 'Sum of two odd numbers is even' — Always True

Examples:
1+3=4 (even)1 + 3 = 4 \text{ (even)} \checkmark
5+7=12 (even)5 + 7 = 12 \text{ (even)} \checkmark
9+11=20 (even)9 + 11 = 20 \text{ (even)} \checkmark
13+15=28 (even)13 + 15 = 28 \text{ (even)} \checkmark
21+19=40 (even)21 + 19 = 40 \text{ (even)} \checkmark

This is always true. We cannot find a counter-example because odd + odd = even always.

(b) 'Multiplying a number by 2 gives an odd number' — Never True

Any number ×\times 2 is always even (it is a multiple of 2).
2×1=2,2×3=6,2×5=102 \times 1 = 2, \quad 2 \times 3 = 6, \quad 2 \times 5 = 10
All results are even. We cannot find any example where n×2n \times 2 is odd.

(c) 'Halving a number always gives an even number' — Sometimes True

Examples where it IS true (halving gives even):
16÷2=8 (even)16 \div 2 = 8 \text{ (even)} \checkmark
20÷2=10 (even)20 \div 2 = 10 \text{ (even)} \checkmark
28÷2=14 (even)28 \div 2 = 14 \text{ (even)} \checkmark

Examples where it is NOT true (halving gives odd):
6÷2=3 (odd)6 \div 2 = 3 \text{ (odd)}
10÷2=5 (odd)10 \div 2 = 5 \text{ (odd)}
14÷2=7 (odd)14 \div 2 = 7 \text{ (odd)}
4Tick in the appropriate cell for the following statements:
(i) Adding 10 to a number gives a multiple of ten.
(ii) Changing the order of the numbers in subtraction makes no difference.
(iii) In multiplication, doubling one number and halving the other keeps the product the same.
(iv) Multiplication by an odd number gives an even number.
(v) Multiplying a number by 5 leads to numbers which have '0' in the Ones place.
Show solution
(i) Adding 10 to a number gives a multiple of ten.

Example: 13+10=2313 + 10 = 23 (not a multiple of 10); 20+10=3020 + 10 = 30 (multiple of 10).
Sometimes True\Rightarrow \mathbf{Sometimes\ True}

(ii) Changing the order of the numbers in subtraction makes no difference.

83=58 - 3 = 5 but 38=53 - 8 = -5 (different result).
Never True\Rightarrow \mathbf{Never\ True}

(iii) In multiplication, doubling one number and halving the other keeps the product the same.

4×6=244 \times 6 = 24; double 4 and halve 6: 8×3=248 \times 3 = 24 ✓. This works for all even numbers being halved.
However, if the number being halved is odd (e.g., 4×5=204 \times 5 = 20; 8×2.5=208 \times 2.5 = 20), it still holds mathematically but may not give whole numbers.
For whole number contexts: Sometimes True (works when the number being halved is even).
Sometimes True\Rightarrow \mathbf{Sometimes\ True}

(iv) Multiplication by an odd number gives an even number.

3×4=123 \times 4 = 12 (even); 3×3=93 \times 3 = 9 (odd). Depends on the other number.
Sometimes True\Rightarrow \mathbf{Sometimes\ True}

(v) Multiplying a number by 5 leads to numbers which have '0' in the Ones place.

5×2=105 \times 2 = 10 (ends in 0); 5×3=155 \times 3 = 15 (ends in 5); 5×4=205 \times 4 = 20 (ends in 0).
Multiples of 5 end in either 0 or 5, not always 0.
Sometimes True\Rightarrow \mathbf{Sometimes\ True}

Summary Table:
| Statement | Always True | Sometimes True | Never True |
|---|---|---|---|
| (i) Adding 10 gives multiple of 10 | | ✓ | |
| (ii) Order in subtraction doesn't matter | | | ✓ |
| (iii) Double one, halve other — product same | | ✓ | |
| (iv) Multiplying by odd gives even | | ✓ | |
| (v) Multiplying by 5 gives '0' in ones place | | ✓ | |
