Any even number can be expressed as a multiple of two. If you have 5 even numbers, then we can label them as such:
a1 = 2*b1
a2 = 2*b2
a3 = 2*b3
a4 = 2*b4
a5 = 2*b5
Where bn is an arbitrary integer
So we therefore have:
a1 + a2 + a3 + a4 + a5 = 2*b1 + 2*b2 +2*b3 + 2*b4 + 2*b5
= 2*(b1 + b2 +b3 + b4 + b5)
We can then let b1 + b2 +b3 + b4 + b5 = c
because our sum of 5 numbers is equal to 2*c, this means that the sum is a multiple of 2, and therefore even.
QED.
No because two plus 15 equals 17
the sum of 18 and a number equals 24

The sum of a single number is itself. So the only number whose sum equals 2 is 2.
No. Sum of odd + odd = even Sum of odd + even = odd Sum of even + even = even
The sum of two odd numbers or two even numbers is an even number. The sum of an odd number and an even number is an odd number.
1. its even 2.its a number 3.its pretty the sum of its digits times 2 equals 18
The sum of divisors of a number, excluding the number itself, is called its aliquot sum
The sum of an odd number and an even number is an odd number.
It doesn't have to be a prime number and an even number. The sum of any two whole numbers is a whole number. Also, the sum of two even numbers is an even number, the sum of two odd numbers is an even number, and the sum of an odd number and an even number is an odd number.
Two odd numbers always sum to an even number. Always. Two even numbers always sum to an even number, and an odd number and an even number always sum to an odd number.
