When you subtract 5, you have to subtract it from every part of the inequality. It should be:

1<5n+5<25

-4<5n<20
-4/5<n<4

so n could be 0,1,2, or 3

1 < 5n + 5 < 25

You can also substitute in this case !

If 5n + 5 = 0 then n = -1, So we can start from 0 which is the immediate neighbor of -1

n=0 5n + 5 =5
n=1 5n + 5 =10
n=2 5n + 5 =15
n=3 5n + 5 =20
n=4 5n + 5 =25 Stop here, this doesn't satisfy !

so Answer = [spoiler]B) 4[/spoiler]

Simplifying the inequality, we have:

1 < 5n + 5 < 25

-4 < 5n < 20

-4/5 < n < 4

The integers that are greater than -4/5 and less than 4 are 0, 1, 2, and 3. Thus, there are 4 integers that satisfy the inequality 1 < 5n + 5 < 25.

Answer: B
