Sagot :
NO, a whole number can't be 5 more than another number, & 5 times another number.
Let a whole number be = n
5 more than whole number = n + 5 ; And 5 times the whole number = 5n
Equating them , n + 5 = 5n
5n - n = 5
4n = 5
n = 5 / 4
5 / 4 is not a whole number, as it is in fractional form.
Also, 5/4 + 5 = (5 + 20) / 4 = 25 / 4
5 / 4 x 5 = 25 / 4
Both above sum & product are also in fractional form, so are not whole numbers.
Hence proven.
