They are all multiples of $40$ from $10000$ to $100000$(remove $100000$).
$2500-250=2250$.

First 5 digit number divisible by 5 is 10000. And last 5 digit number divisible by 5 is 99995. So you can find the total 5 digit numbers divisible by 5 which are 18000.
Similarly for 8 first is 10000 and last is 99992. So total are 11250.
Now numbers divisible by both 5 and 8 i.e by 40 are counted twice so 5. Digit numbers by 40 are (doing in similar way) are 2250.
So total 5 digit numbers divisible by 5 and 8 are
$18000+11250-2250=27000$
