As they have to be divisible by 2 and 5 simultaneously we have to check the multiples of its LCM(least common multiple).
The LCM of 2 and 5 is 10.
So, the numbers have to be divisible by 10.
The numbers must be 10,20,30,40,50,60,70,80 and 90 but not 100 as it is three digit number.
But 20,40,60 and 80 are divisible by 4.
So, we are left with 10,30,50,70 and 90
According to the above condition the numbers must be greater than 10
So 10 is also excluded
We are left with
30,50,70 and 90
50 is divisible by 25
So, the left numbers are 30,70 and 90
And these three numbers are the two-digit numbers that are greater than 10 are divisible by 2 and 5, but not by 4 or 25.
Hope that helps.
