The problem of finding the number of ways to write a positive integer as the sum of distinct positive integers is a classic combinatorial problem known as "partitioning." In this case, we are looking for the number of ways to partition 15 into 4 distinct parts. This can be calculated using a formula derived from Euler, which involves finding the number of partitions of the number into exactly 4 parts and subtracting the number of partitions of the number into 1, 2, or 3 parts. The result in this case is 9.

I assume you mean the first three "counting" (ordinal) numbers, which are 1, 2, and 3. The sum is therefore 1 + 4 + 9 = 14.

How many 9 digit numbers are ther in all?

We'll assume that you only want to talk about whole numbers.The smallest 9-digit number is 100,000,000. The largest one is 999,999,999.They represent (all of the counting numbers up to 999,999,999) minus (the first 99,999,999).That leaves 900,000,000 numbers.

Are there more odd numbers less than 50 than even numbers?

Let's assume for a moment we're not thinking about negative numbers. Only counting numbers from 0-49, there is the same number even as odd so the answer is no. If you didn't include 0, then the answer would be yes. If you do include negative numbers, then there are an infinite number of both odd and even numbers. In this case it doesn't seem to make sense to say there are more odd numbers than even numbers so the answer is no. In short: No. Yes if it's only 1-49.
