A ball's area is divided into two sections. If each section is to be painted using one of 5 different colors, how many differently painted designs are possible?

I know that the first area has 5 options for coloring. The second area has 4 options for coloring so 5x4 = total possibilities for differently painted designs. 

I'm not sure if 5x4 would include repeats? Can you explain why the solution for the problem, 5x4, would not include repeats?
