There are many examples to give for the product of 5 and 2, which is 10.
One example is:
I want to give 5 apples to each of the couple [which is 2 people]. How many apples do I need, so each of two people has 5 apples?
Another example:
The length is 5 cm and the width is 2 cm. What is the dimension?
Including extra details for the question is a plus to make the question more specific.
it means "five times"; for example if x = 1 then 5x is 5; if x= 2 then 5x = 10, etc.
Here is the work for that problem: 5x+ 2=12 5x= 12-2 5x=10 x= 2

If your equation is 5x-2=4x+4 Then this is how you solve it... 5x-2=4x+4 5x-2+2=4x+4+2 5x=4x+6 5x-4x=4x-4x+6 x=6 Your x=6
Expression
it means "five times"; for example if x = 1 then 5x is 5; if x= 2 then 5x = 10, etc.
a positive... for example: -5x-5=25
5x-1+2= 5x+1
(5x)2 = 25x2.
Here is the work for that problem: 5x+ 2=12 5x= 12-2 5x=10 x= 2
5x + 2 = 22 5x = 22 - 2 5x = 20 5x/5 = 20/5 x=4
5x-2 = 3x-6 5x = 3x - 6 +2 5x = 3x - 4 5x - 3x = -4 2x = -4 x = -2

If your equation is 5x-2=4x+4 Then this is how you solve it... 5x-2=4x+4 5x-2+2=4x+4+2 5x=4x+6 5x-4x=4x-4x+6 x=6 Your x=6
5x-5 = -3 5x = -3+5 5x = 2 x = 2/5
