It will be Odd if the original number was Odd - you have O + O + O = (O + O) + O = E + O = O
Otherwise it will be Even if the original number was Even - you have E + E + E = (E + E) + E = E + E = E
------------------------------
Algebraically:
For an odd number x = 2n + 1 where n is an integer
3x = 3 × (2n + 1)
= 6n + 3
= 6n + 2 + 1
= 2(3n + 1) + 1
= 2m + 1 where m = 3n + 1
which is an odd number
For an even number x = 2n where n is an integer
3x = 3 × 2n
= 6n
= 2(3n)
= 2m where m = 3n
which is an even number

So an odd number minus an even number is odd, while an even number minus and even number is even.
