Suppose N stands for any number. Then 2N will always be even, so 2N + 1 will always be odd. Now let K stand for any other number. Then 2K + 1 will be another odd number. Now suppose we add these two odd numbers ; 2N + 1 + 2K + 1 = 2N + 2K +2 Factor out a 2, 2(K + N + 1) So the result of adding two odd numbers always gives a number which has the factor 2. So it is always an even number. Now add an even number 2N with an odd number 2K + 1 to get; 2N + 2K +1 . Since 2N + 2K is always an even number (has the factor 2 ) then 2N + 2K + 1 will always be an odd number.

What are four consecutive odd numbers that equal thirteen?
2 odd numbers added together equal an event number. to even numbers added together equal an even number. it is impossible to make 4 odd numbers equal an even.
Can 5 odd numbers make 50?
No. Two odd numbers added together always give an even number. Two even numbers added together always give an even number. An odd and an even number added together always give an odd number. So, if we have 5 odd numbers - a, b, c, d and e a + b will be even c + d will be even So if (a + b) + (c + d) is even, adding e to that will have to be an odd number - but 50 is even, so it cannot be done.
What are two odd numbers whose sum is odd?
There are none. Two odd numbers added together equal a even number.
What are two even numbers that when added you get odd numbers?
That is not possible; adding two even numbers always gives an even number
What 3 even numbers added together make an odd number?
There are never 3 even numbers that add up to an odd number because all of the numbers are even so the result/sum will have to be an even number.
What will you get if you add numbers and a even numbers?
The answer depends on how many odd numbers are being added together: even numbers make no difference.If the count of odd numbers is odd then the total is odd, andff the count of odd numbers is even then the total is even.
What are four consecutive odd numbers that equal thirteen?
2 odd numbers added together equal an event number. to even numbers added together equal an even number. it is impossible to make 4 odd numbers equal an even.
What 5 odd numbers equal 30 when added and you can use the odd numbers more than once?
There are no 5 odd numbers that when added together make 30.Two odd numbers added together make an even numberAn odd number plus and even number makes an odd number.From the five odd numbers:Take two of them and add them together getting an even number and four odd numbersAdd another of the odd numbers to this even number and you will have three odd numbersAdd two of these together and you will have one even and one odd number.Finally add these odd and even numbers together and the result will be an odd numberBut 30 is an even number, so cannot be the sum of five (or any odd number of) odd numbers.
Can 5 odd numbers make 50?
No. Two odd numbers added together always give an even number. Two even numbers added together always give an even number. An odd and an even number added together always give an odd number. So, if we have 5 odd numbers - a, b, c, d and e a + b will be even c + d will be even So if (a + b) + (c + d) is even, adding e to that will have to be an odd number - but 50 is even, so it cannot be done.
What are two odd numbers whose sum is odd?
There are none. Two odd numbers added together equal a even number.
Is it possible to have 2 even numbers that add to be an odd number?
no...all even numbers that are added together are even.
What are two even numbers that when added you get odd numbers?
That is not possible; adding two even numbers always gives an even number
What results if an even number is added to the difference of two odd numbers?
Difference of two odd numbers is an even number. Adding an even number changes nothing.
What 2 even numbers make an odd when added together?
It is impossible.
What are 5 odd numbers added up that equal up to 20?
There is no such combination to form an even no. 20 by combing 5 odd nos. as odd+odd=even even +even=evenodd+even=odd even+odd=odd adding 5 odd like
What 3 even numbers added together make an odd number?
There are never 3 even numbers that add up to an odd number because all of the numbers are even so the result/sum will have to be an even number.
Why does an even number plus an odd number always equal an odd number?
For any even number n, the following integer is odd (n+1), so for any odd number other than 1, you are adding the preceding even number, plus 1. Because all even numbers are multiples of 2, their sum is even, and 1 more will be an odd number.---Think of the odd number as an even number plus one and remember that all even numbers are multiples of two.Therefore:- Any two even numbers added together will always be a multiple of two and therefore even. Any two odd numbers added together will be the same as adding two even numbers plus 1 plus 1. (A multiple of two plus two which is still a multiple of two).An odd number added to an even number will be the same as two even numbers plus 1 in other words a multiple of two (even) plus one making the result odd.Extrapolating further it's easy to see that by the above reasoning that for all positive integers...Any number of even numbers added together will always be even.An odd number of odd numbers added together will always be odd.Any even number of odd numbers added together will always be even,Adding any number of even numbers to any number of odd numbers will make no difference to the outcome, the odd or even outcome will still be determined by the number of odd numbers being added together.---Another approach:Let n, r be real numbers even number representation: 2nodd number representation: 2n + 1sum = 2n + 2n + 1 = 4n + 1 = 2(2n) + 1let 2n = rsum representation becomes: 2r + 1, which is a representation of an odd number.
