The Answer:We know the following properties of the parities concerning the numbers:

odd + odd = even

even + odd = odd (commutativity yields the vice verca possible too)

even + even = even

Thus, we know that the group of numbers have at least 1 odd. However, since 2 odds make an even, any amount of even amount of odds make an even. Therefore, there must be an odd number of odds (i.e., {1, 3, 5}, the only ones that exist in that set).

How do you define mean number?

The mean number of a number set is the same as the average number of a number set. It is the number that results from adding all of the numbers in a set together and then dividing by the amount of numbers you added together. For example, in the set 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, you add the five numbers together and get 15. There are five numbers in the set, so when you divide 15 by 5, you get 3. This is the mean number.


What 5 odd numbers equal 30 when added and you can use the odd numbers more than once?

There are no 5 odd numbers that when added together make 30.Two odd numbers added together make an even numberAn odd number plus and even number makes an odd number.From the five odd numbers:Take two of them and add them together getting an even number and four odd numbersAdd another of the odd numbers to this even number and you will have three odd numbersAdd two of these together and you will have one even and one odd number.Finally add these odd and even numbers together and the result will be an odd numberBut 30 is an even number, so cannot be the sum of five (or any odd number of) odd numbers.

What five even consecutive numbers make 230?

If you mean five even consecutive numbers added together, it is 42, 44, 46, 48, and 50. 42+44+46+48+50=230. To get this, I divided 230 by five, (46) then counted down two to the next even number, (44), down another two (42) then started at 46 and went up two to 48, then another two to 50. Then, to check, I added them together.
