For basic problems like this, we can use the counting method to solve it. Follow along, class.

The problem is two times five, so we need to create two rows of five, like so. Imagine each as a single unit:




As we can see, each is equivalent to one, and there are five in each row. And when we count every up, we get 10
Therefore, the answer to this problem is
