01 Why is at least one number among five consecutive integers divisible by 5?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: A. Because division by 5 gives the cycle of remainders 0, 1, 2, 3, 4
Explanation: Step 1: Any integer divided by 5 has one of the forms (5q), (5q+1), (5q+2), (5q+3), or (5q+4). Step 2: Five consecutive integers cover all five remainders. Step 3: The number with remainder 0 is divisible by 5.
