Do an ordinary multiplication, except carry whenever there is 5 (and not 10).
The format at this site does not allow digits to be aligned, so there is no point showing the multiplication.
A simple case could be:
125*45
4*2=8=135
4*1=45+carry=105
So the answer is 1035.

To multiply the numbers in the indicated base, follow these steps:
Step 1: Set up the multiplication problem vertically, with the multiplicand (304) on top of the multiplier (5).
304
X 5
Step 2: Start by multiplying the rightmost digit of the multiplicand (4) by the multiplier (5). Write the result under the line.
304
