It sounds like the goal is for each box to have an odd number of pencils. At first it seems impossible, but if one of the boxes can go inside another so that the larger box holds an even # plus the odd number in the smaller box (for a total of an odd number), then you can do it.

Simply put, even numbers are numbers divisible by two. Odd numbers cannot be divided by two. This has to do with dividing an integer by two.

Is the gcf of an odd and even number always even?

No. The opposite is true: the gcf of an odd number and an even number is always odd. All the factors of an odd number are odd; or to put it another way: If a number has an even factor, the number itself must be even. Thus the only common factors between odd and even numbers must be odd.
