Solve This Mathematical Question Correctly And Get 5,000 Naira. by akins56(m): 5:32pm On Aug 31, 2014
Add just 5 of the following odd numbers together, and they must be equal to 30.....1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15 NB. You can use a particular number more than once.

Add just 5 (five) odd numbers. Is the instruction too arduous to decipher for you?

before you start stressing yourself, read this:
there is no way you will add odd numbers together in odd numbers of way that will ever give you even number..

I the question above, we have odd numbers to add in odd ways(5numbers).. So you will neva get an even number if u try it nw til jesus come..


If you stil wnt to attempt it, Good luck then!

Okay, Here we go…


11 + 9 + 5 + 3 + 1… + 1 = 30.

The Whole Idea is in the Emboldened above.... (Repetition of a particular number is allowed).

Wo,I don rack my brain tire o









3+7+15+3+1+1=30










I don't think its possible adding odd number of odd numbers to get 30,maybe an even number of odd numbers

.....5+5+5+5+5+5+=30....cause the question is "ADD JUST 5" of the following Odd numbers

doro smart.

lol. Yes, I added just 5 distinct odd numbers, (11, 9, 5, 3, 1), with repetition of one of the 5 distinct numbers.
See, it really depends on your definition/understanding of the question, ab initio.

Mathematically, it is IMPOSSIBLE to add five odd numbers together to give 30 which is an even number. I believe the op's question requires some thinking-out-of-the-box... I may be wrong though, maybe...
Or, then again, there might as well be a typo in the question in the first place...

add just five numbers, in between the five you are allowed to repeat a number more than once.
