Why aren't all odd numbers divisible by 3?
Because not all odd numbers are multiples of 3 - I have shown you below that this is the case and you can see some multiples of 3 are even and some are odd and you can also see that there are even and odd numbers BETWEEN the multiples of 3. 1 (odd) 2 (even) 1*3 =3 (odd) 4 (even) 5 (odd) 2*3 = 6 (even) 7 (odd) 8 (even) 3*3 = 9 (odd) 10 (even) 11 (odd) 4*3 = 12 (even)
What is the pattern of odd and even numbers in the row 3 or 3 column?
Alternating. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 in row 3, (7,8,9) the 8 is even and the 7 and 9 are odd. thus odd,even,odd. in column 3, (3,6,9) the 6 is even and the 3 and 9 are odd, thus odd,even,odd. as the row/column selector (3) is odd the first digit in that row/column of a 3X3 grid will be odd as will the first. the numbers then alternate even odd even.
Why can't you get an even number when you add three odd numbers?
because... odd+odd=even even+odd=odd e.g 1+1+1=3 odd+odd+odd=odd
What is 3 digits plus 3 digits and equals 3 digits only using numbers 1 through 9 without carrying a number?
There is no solution to this problem. If each digit can be used once only then we have 5 odd numbered digits (1,3,5,7,9) and 4 even numbered digits (2,4,6,8). To create the two numbers that are added together requires the following combinations of digits. 5 Odd & 1 Even ....when added these will generate 2 Even digits & 1 Odd digit but the remaining digits are 3 Even. 4 Odd & 2 Even. These will generate 3 Even digits OR 1 Even digit & 2 Odd digits but the remaining digits are 1 Odd & 2 Even. 3 Odd & 3 Even. These generate 3 Odd digits OR 2 Even & 1 Odd digits but the remaining digits are 2 Odd & 1 Even. 2 Odd & 4 Even. These generate 3 Even digits OR 2 Odd & 1 Even digits but the remaining digits are 3 Odd & no Even.
Why can't 3 odd numbers equal 50?
3 odd numbers can't be equal to 50 because: odd number + odd number = even number even number + odd number = odd number thus, adding 3 odd numbers will always give a sum which is an odd number too even number.
