Question

Here's a brain teaser. (I already know the answer) 1=5 2=10 3=15 4=20 5=?

Answer 1

Answer:

5 = 1

or

5 = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

I've seen two answers to this.

1. Since we are told 1 = 5, then 5 = 1.

One answer is 1 = 5

2. Since each number on the right is 5 times the number on the left, then 25 corresponds to 5, and 5 = 25.

Answer 2

Answer: 5=1 (The correct answer) 5=25 (The answer that makes sense but is not correct).

Step-by-step explanation:

Explanation for answer 1: It say's that 1 = 5.

Explanation for answer 2: If we follow the pattern of adding 5 each time we go up a number then 5 would equal 25.
