Questions and answers

Why does every answer in the 5 times table end in 5 or 0?

Two 5s make 10, so every pair of 5s is a whole ten. An even number of 5s is all pairs: 5 × 6 is three tens, 30. An odd number leaves one 5 over: 5 × 7 is three tens and a 5, 35.

Is 1,335 in the 5 times table?

What comes after 5 × 12 on a multiplication chart of 5?

Set Go up to at × 20 and the chart adds 5 × 13 = 65 to 5 × 20 = 100. The halving route still works: 5 × 18 is half of 180, which is 90. In coins, 17 nickels are 85 cents and 20 make a dollar.
