Answer 1) Because, odds with evens would be odd, so odds+odds=evens.

Answer 2) Relating this to an example, if you want to add 5 + 7, you could take 1 off each of these odd numbers, making them even. Your equation will now be 4 + 6, but you also have to add 2 to you answer because of that's the amount you took off to make the numbers even. You equation will now be 4 + 6 + 2, which is 12. Sorry if this is confusing....
