While multiplying B and 5 we are getting a number whose ones digit is B again.
This is only possible when B = 5 or B = 0
In that case,
The product will be, B × 5 = 5 × 5 = 25
2 will be a carry for the next step
Now,
We have, 5 × A + 2 = CA, which is possible for A = 2 or 7
The multiplication is as follows:
If B = 0,
B × 5 = B
⇒ 0 × 5
= 0
There will not be any carry in this step.
In the next step, 5 × A = CA
It can only happen when A = 5 or A = 0
But, A cannot be 0 as AB is a two-digit number
Hence, A can be 5 only.
The multiplication is as follows:
Hence, there are 3 possible values of A, B, and C:
(i) 5, 0, and 2 respectively
(ii) 2, 5, and 1 respectively
(iii) 7, 5, and 3 respectively
