Can 5 and 10 divide the same counting number?True or False

Directrix (directrix):

What is a number that BOTH 5 and 10 will divide?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that's all the question says is its true or false. im guessing false.

Directrix (directrix):

If you can find a number of which BOTH 5 and 10 are factors, then the answer will be true. Otherwise, false. Don't think too hard. Hint: If you were adding the fractions, 1/5 and 1/10 , what might you choose for a common denominator?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so if 5 divides the counting # then 10 will divide the counting #?

Directrix (directrix):

Almost. If 10 divides the counting number, then 5 will divide the counting number because 5 divides 10.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok,thank-u. :)

Directrix (directrix):

Name a number that 10 will divide into and leave no remainder.
