1) n=0 => 1<5<25 - OK
2) n=1 => 1<10<25 - OK
3) n=2 => 1<15<25 - OK
4) n=3 => 1<20<25 - OK
5) n=4 => 1<25<25 - NOK (anything n>=4 should not be ok)
6) n=-1 => 1 < 0 <25 - NOK (anything n < 0 should not be ok)
So option B.

This Q is in OG 11. Another way to solve it is
1<5n+5<25

1-5<5n<25-5
-4<5n<20

-4/5<n<4. So the integers are between -4/5 to 4. so it is 0,1,2,3. I.e b
