What does odd mean in math terms?
The terms "even" and "odd" are used for integers (whole numbers). If a number is divisible by 2, it is said to be "even"; otherwise it is "odd". Numbers that end with 0, 2, 4, 6, or 8 are even; the others are odd.
What are consecutive even or odd integers?
Consecutive even numbers are any even numbers which are separated by one (uneven) number... so that 6 and 8 are consecutive even numbers... as are 22, 24 and 26. Similarly, consecutive odd numbers are numbers which are separated by one (even) number... so that 11 and 13 are consecutive odd numbers... as are 31, 33 and 35.
Is 5.5 even or odd?
55 is an odd number. Odd numbers end in 1, 3, 5, 7, or 9. Even numbers end in 0, 2, 4, 6, or 8.
Why is the sum of 2 consecutive integers always an odd number?
The sum of two even numbers is always an even number. The sum of two odd numbers is always an even number.The sum of an even number and an odd number is always an odd number.Because integers alternate between even and odd, adding two consecutive integers will always result the sum of an odd number and an even number, which, as stated above, will always be an odd number.Another way to look at it:An even number is divisible by 2, therefore, 2*n (where n is an integer) is always an even number.2*n+1 would be the next number after 2*n (so 2*n & 2*n+1 are consecutive integers).If we add these numbers together, we get 4*n+1 = 2(2*n)+1. Since 2(2*n) is an even number, adding 1 makes it an odd number._________________________________________________________________________I'm not going to but in or anything, seriously that was a good answer
Between 1 and 100 how many multiples of 7 are odd numbers?
Start out looking at them. 7x1=7 odd 7x2=14 even 7x3=21 odd 7x4=28 even 7x5=35 odd 7x6=42 even... so it looks like half might be even and half odd, This is because if we look at the numbers 1-14, ie 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13. and 14, they alternate odd and even and since 7 is odd and odd times an even is always an even number and an odd times an odd is always an odd number. So to answer the question we need only look at the number of odd numbers between 1 and 14 inclusive. There are 6 so 1,3,5,7,9,11,13 give odd multiples ANSWER: so 7 odd multiples of 7 between 1 and 100
