How could you determine whether a sum of numbers such as 127 plus 38 is even or odd?

The parity rules are: Odd + Odd = Even Even + Even = Even Odd + Even = Odd Even + Odd = Odd So the parity where one number is even is that of the other number. This means that you can go through a list of numbers and ignore all the even numbers. Every PAIR of odd numbers has even parity and by the previous paragraph, even parity can be ignored. So you can pair off odd numbers and ignore them.

What is the result of product of even numbers and odd numbers?

If you multiply one even number by one odd number, the result is always even. In general, if you multiply several numbers, and at least one of the numbers is even, the product is always even. This is because "even" means "multiple of 2", and if one of the factors contains a 2 as a factor, so will the product.
