If Angel plants the same number of flowers in each of 5 rows, he will have none left over. If he plants 1 in the first row and then 1 more in each row than he did in the previous row, he will plant flowers in only 4 rows. how many flowers does he have?

The number of flowers is evenly divisible by 5.

Planting 1,2,3, and 4 in four rows, with none left over, uses up 10 plants.

The number 10 meets both requirements
