[Here](https://github.com/plokhotnyuk/jsoniter-scala/commit/a92a4a6dbf3a51320c677e812d3495f1fa78255a#diff-4e32fbdaa814b6b0b8e22a1b1440bb2928e50a6e1482e0d56c08d606812b625bL1971) is the Scala function that tests divisibility by 5 for a positive `Long` value efficiently with minimum multiplication operations and can be easily adopted for Java. ------------- PR: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/12509
