Actually, what it means is that you just have to times a number by five.
ie: If you take 3 and multiply by 5, then you get 15. It's quite simple actually.
so, you could say, times by 5 or n x 5 (you can replace n with your favorite letter, if desired.)

To multiply a number by five is to quintuple a number.
To find the number that you can multiply by 5 to get 22, you would divide 22 by 5. This calculation results in 4.4. Therefore, you can multiply 5 by 4.4 to get 22.
To get 25, you can multiply 5 by 5 because 5 multiplied by 5 equals 25. In mathematical terms, this can be expressed as 5 x 5 = 25. So, the numbers you multiply to get 25 are 5 and 5.
the reverse would be to divide by 5 or the inverse would be to multiply by 1/5 (both answers are mathematically the same)
The percentage of 2/5 is 40%.The word 'percent' mean 'per hundred'. So you multiply the five by whatever it takes to make 100, in this case 20. Then multiply the 2 by 20 as well and you get 40. So the answer is 40 per cent.It is: 2/5 times 100 = 40%
