I think they must mean any two digit number /ending/ in five, not divisible. To find the square of any two digit number ending in zero, you simply square the first digit and add two zeros.

They said any two-digit odd number divisible by 5, which of course is the same as any two digit number ending in 5.

The only odd two digit numbers divisible by 5 end in 5.

They specify "odd number" divisible by five ... all of which, of course, end with the digit "5" ...
