You have 5 digits.


You can place any of these 5 digits to the first ("tens") position.


Since repetition is allowed, you can place any of these 5 digits to the last ("ones") position.


By doing this way, you obtain 5x5 = 25 different pairs of digits.


Each pair defines a unique 2-digit number.


Different pairs define different numbers.


Therefore, 25 different 2-digit numbers can be obtained.    ANSWER

Solved.
