Convert the high (leftmost) 5 digits of the BCD number to binary first,
using one of the conventional methods.  Ignoring the last digit
essentially divides the BCD number by 10.
Then multiply the binary result by 2 (shift it left one bit).
The binary result is now N/10 * 2 = N/5, except it doesn't include the
lowest BCD digit.  It is easy to add the last digit in because it's
contribution to the final result can only be 0 or 1.  If the lowest digit
is 5 or more, add 1 to the final result.
