Number ÷ 20 = quotient R 7
So the Number = 20 × quotient + 7
Notice that 20 is already a multiple of 5 since 5 × 4 = 20.
i.e (quotient × 20) can be rearranged into many groups of 5.
We only have to add to the 7 to make the entire number a multiple of 5.
We need to add. The closest multiple of 5 we can get to, is 10 (10 = 5 × 2)
Number to be added to 7 would be :
10 - 7 = 3
