to divisible by 5 unit digit must be either zero or 5 here exponent of 7 can be
(7,9,3,1) at unit digit and to make sum 0 or 5 it should be
(7+3) or (9+1)
to take 7+3
(71+73) and (75+73)...................................(799+73)

(71+77)...........................................................(799+77)
in this way you can apporach it
