[Page 14 of 37]

The following question requires that we identify two Number Properties relationships - neither Picking Numbers nor Backsolving will work here. Let's work through the problem below, using our knowledge of Number Properties to get to the correct answer. Review the question, and then proceed to the task below.

How many positive integers less than 60 are equal to the product of a positive multiple of 5 and an even number?

4
5
9
10
11
This question stem suggests that two Number Properties concepts will be central to solving this problem. What are they?

1:

2:

Our question stem includes a reference to 'multiples of 5'. This suggests that we must use divisibility rules to answer this question. In addition, the stem also refers to the product of an even number. This suggests that odd/even rules are also necessary to solve the problem.
