If you dont mind i think your question is not clear so plz clear the question bcz the number is not given
Thanks
Consider that A = 5 * n (A is a multiple of 5)
The multiple of 5 that is not greater than B is
Z = B - (B mod 5)
So the problems becomes: “sum all multiples of 5 between A and Z (included)”.
Now, Z is also a multiple of 5, therefore
Z = 5 * (n + m)
and assume also that Z >= A
Therefore the result is
5 * (n) + 5 * (n + 1) + 5 * (n + 2 ) … + 5 * (n + m)
which is also
5 * ((n)+(n+1)+(n+2) … + (n+m))
and therefore is also
5 * ((n + n + … ) + (1 + 2 … + m))
which in turn is
n = A / 5;
Z = B - (B mod 5)
m = (Z / 5) - n
result = 5 * ((n * (m + 1) + (m * (m +1)) / 2)
Example:
A = 15, B = 36
n = 15 / 5 = 3
Z = B - (B mod 5) = 36 - 1 = 35
m = (35 / 5) - 3 = 7 - 3 = 4
result = 5 * ((3 * 5) + (4 * 5 / 2)) = 5 * (15 + 10) = 5 * 25 = 125
which is the same as
result = 15 + 20 + 25 + 30 + 35 = 125
Therefore, your flow chart is just a single step computing the result. For clarity, you may want to split it into multiple steps.
