Multiplying by 5 always gives an answer ending in either 0 or 5. Alternatively, multiply by 10 and take half.
5 × 8 = half of (10 × 8) = half of 80 = 40. Even numbers times 5 end in 0; odd numbers times 5 end in 5.
Multiplication Patterns
- Last digits strictly alternate: 5, 0, 5, 0, 5, 0…
- Even factor × 5 = ends in 0 (e.g. 5 × 4 = 20, 5 × 6 = 30).
- Odd factor × 5 = ends in 5 (e.g. 5 × 3 = 15, 5 × 7 = 35).
