Sure, let's solve the problem step-by-step.

We are given that 5 times a number is equal to 75. To find the unknown number, we can set up an equation. Let's denote the unknown number as [tex]\( x \)[/tex].

1. According to the problem, 5 times the number [tex]\( x \)[/tex] is equal to 75. This can be written as:
[tex]\[ 5 \cdot x = 75 \][/tex]

2. To solve for [tex]\( x \)[/tex], we need to isolate [tex]\( x \)[/tex] on one side of the equation. To do this, we can divide both sides of the equation by 5:
[tex]\[ x = \frac{75}{5} \][/tex]

3. Now we perform the division:
[tex]\[ x = 15 \][/tex]

So, the number that satisfies the condition is [tex]\( 15 \)[/tex].
