Example Question #1 : Equations
If given the equation , with a positive integer, the result must be an integer multiple of:
5
12
2
8
10
5
The mathematical expression given in the question is . Adding together like terms, , this can be simplified to . The expression can be factored as . For every positive integer , must be a multiple of 5. If , then , which is not an integer multiple of 2, 8, 10, or 15. Therefore, the correct answer is 5.
