COMMENTS
More generally, consider the sequence defined by p^a(n) exactly divides p*n. For p = 3 we have A051064 and for p = 2 we have A001511.

FORMULA
G.f.: Sum_{k>=0} x^(5^k)/(1-x^5^k). - Ralf Stephan, Apr 12 2002
Multiplicative with a(p^e) = e+1 if p = 5, 1 otherwise.
a(n) = -Sum_{d|n} mu(5d)*tau(n/d). - Benoit Cloitre, Jun 21 2007
Dirichlet g.f.: zeta(s)/(1-1/5^s). - R. J. Mathar, Feb 09 2011
a(n) = A112765(5n). - R. J. Mathar, Jul 17 2012
a(5n) = 1 + a(n). a(5n+k) = 1 for k = 1..4. - Robert Israel, Dec 07 2015
G.f. satisfies A(x^5) = A(x) - x/(1-x). - Robert Israel, Dec 08 2015
a(n) = A112765(n) + 1. - Amiram Eldar, Sep 21 2020
Sum_{k=1..n} a(k) ~ 5*n/4. - Vaclav Kotesovec, Sep 21 2020
EXAMPLE
a(5) = 2 since 5^2 exactly divides 5 times 5;
a(25) = 3 since 5^3 exactly divides 5 times 25;
a(125) = 4 since 5^4 exactly divides 5 times 125.
