If the number (count) of odd values to sum is odd, then the answer is odd.If the number (count) of odd values to sum is even, then the answer is even.
Take 13 and 17 as an example. Sum is 13 + 17 ie 30, product is 13 x 17 = 221
30.
17
The answer is 270. Simply add up all of the numbers arithmetically like you would for two plus two. To make sure the answer is correct, check your work using a calculator.
13 + 9 + 17 = 39
Count how many of the numbers are odd. If an odd number of them are odd, then their sum is odd. If an even number of them are odd, then their sum is even.
Even plus even equals even. Odd plus odd equals odd. Odd plus even equals odd. 13 + 45 (odd plus odd) will be even. Even plus 24 will be even. Even plus 17will be odd. 13 + 45 + 24 + 17 will be odd.
58 + 17 = 75
17 plus 15 plus 13 equals 45.
No it doesn't. That sum is 100.
