Numbers whose last digit is 5 or 0 are divisible by which number?
ADivisible by 2
BDivisible by 3
CDivisible by 10
DDivisible by 5
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. Divisible by 5
1. Look at the multiples of 5 listed in the table: 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, and so on.
2. Every one of those multiples ends in either a 5 or a 0.
3. That pattern gives the divisibility test: a number ending in 5 or 0 is divisible by 5.
