This is just an arbitrary convention, based perhaps on the fact that each 'even' number can be divided into equal portions. The 'odd' numbers are not curious in any manner other than they can be only be divided into equal groups of 'odd' numbers. e.g. 15 may be divided into 5 groups of 3. BUT 7 cannot be divided into an equal number of groups.
The word "even" is used to describe numbers which can be divided into two equal parts: that is, parts that will balance evenly. A number which cannot be so divided (in terms of whole numbers) is odd.
3, which can be divided by the odd numbers 1 and 3.
The sum of any four odd numbers will never be equal to an odd number.
5 odd numbers must always equal an odd number so can never equal 1000

Yes it is =)

Even numbers are definitely divisible by 2, odd numbers aren't ----------------- even numbers are the numbers that can be divided by 2 while the odd numbers are the numbers that cannot be divided by 2.
10 can be divided by 5. 10 is even. 15 can be divided by 5. 15 is odd. So some of the numbers that can be divided by 5 are odd and some are even.
The sum of any four odd numbers will never be equal to an odd number.
What! Even numbers never equal an odd number. Not ever!
