Answer:
the product of 5 and a number
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]5n[/tex] is really [tex]5 * n[/tex].
In higher education math, the multiplication sign is not used. A number and a variable (or a equation in grouping symbols) would be just together next to each other. When it's like this, you would have to multiply the numbers.
Example:
[tex]4n; n = 2\\4(2) = 4* 2 = 8[/tex]
