The modulus is increasing to get the individual digits of the number. Now do this in a loop by multiplying the modulus.

Here are two solutions to your problem. First one is using recursion and the second one is counter.
def contains_two_fives_loop(n):
"""Using loop."""
counter = 0
while n:
counter += n % 10 == 5
n //= 10
return 2 <= counter
def contains_two_fives_recursion(n):
"""Using recursion."""
return 2 <= (n % 10) == 5 + contains_two_fives(n // 10)
def contains_two_fives_str_counter(n):
"""Convert to string and count 5s in the string."""
return 2 <= str(n).count("5")

There are two types of loops in Python - 'for' and 'while'. Other languages (C, C++, C#, Java, JavaScript ...) also have 'do-while' loop.
