Activity :-  Two-digit numbers divisible by 5 are, 10, 15, 20, ......, 95.

Here, d = 5, therefore this sequence is an A.P.

Here, a = 10, d = 5, tn = 95, n = ?

tn = a + (n – 1) `square`

`square` = 10 + (n – 1) × 5

`square` = (n – 1) × 5

`square` = (n – 1)

Therefore n = `square`

There are `square` two-digit numbers divisible by 5.
