Counting in 5s follows on closely from counting up and down in steps of 2. It is usually practiced regularly, in order for the skill to be fluent, and children are also taught to recognize that multiples of five end in 5 or 0. Once the five times table is familiar, children will learn how to use the multiplication facts to solve division questions. For example, if they know that 2 times 5 = 10, then they may also recognize that 10 divided by 5 = 2 or 10 divided by 2 = 5.

Use this quiz to help you practice multiplying and dividing by 5.

1. What is the next number in this sequence: 15, 20, 25, 30, ?

[ ] 5
[ ] 6
[ ] 60
3. I pack crayons into boxes, putting 5 in each box. How many boxes will I need for 40 crayons?
[ ] 48, because 40 ÷ 5 = 48
[ ] 20, because 4 x 5 = 20
[ ] 45, because 40 + 5 = 45
[ ] 8, because 40 ÷ 5 = 8

[ ] 50
[ ] 2
[ ] 15
[ ] 5
5. I know that 12 x 5 = 60. What else do I know?

[ ] 60 ÷ 12 = 5
[ ] 5 x 60 = 12
6. Which is the odd fact out?

Math: Elementary School: Grades 3, 4 and 5 Quiz - Multiplying and Dividing by 5 (Answers)
1. What is the next number in this sequence: 15, 20, 25, 30, ?
[ ] 33
[ ] 31
[x] 35
[ ] 40
The numbers are going up in fives
2. Children sit in groups of 5. How many groups can be made from 30 children?
[ ] 35
[ ] 5
[x] 6
[ ] 60
30 ÷ 5 = 6
3. I pack crayons into boxes, putting 5 in each box. How many boxes will I need for 40 crayons?
[ ] 48, because 40 ÷ 5 = 48
[ ] 20, because 4 x 5 = 20
[ ] 45, because 40 + 5 = 45
[x] 8, because 40 ÷ 5 = 8
We could work this out from knowing that 5 x 8 = 40 or 8 x 5 = 40
4. What is 10 x 5?
[x] 50
[ ] 2
[ ] 15
[ ] 5
You would get the same answer from 5 x 10
5. I know that 12 x 5 = 60. What else do I know?
[ ] 12 ÷ 60 = 5
[ ] 60 + 5 = 12
[x] 60 ÷ 12 = 5
[ ] 5 x 60 = 12
If 12 groups of 5 makes 60, then 60 divided into groups of 12 will mean 5 in each group
6. Which is the odd fact out?
[ ] 5 x 7 = 35
[ ] 35 ÷ 7 = 5
[ ] 35 ÷ 5 = 7
[x] 7 ÷ 5 = 35
7 ÷ 5 does not give a whole number as an answer
7. Which is not a multiple of 5?
[ ] 75
[ ] 90

Counting up in 5s until you reach 95 is helpful here
9. Which number is in the 5 times table?
[x] 785
[ ] 513
[ ] 556
[ ] 789
Looking only at the last digit is important when spotting multiples of 5
