Since a multiple of 5 ends in a 0 or a five, the nearest one ends in 65 clearly making the remainder 2. No division or anything needed, just logic

Just look at number 7. 7/5=1R2.The big number is to fool you to think that is something so complicated but it is so easy!

@Swapnil Maiti the probability of getting it right is 3 5 \frac{3}{5} this time using the same logic. :p
