The sum of two odd numbers and one even number is even.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A True

Finding the sum of some odd numbers and even number to check if it is even or not

Odd Number: A number that is not divisible by $2$ and leaves $1$ as the remainder is called an odd number.

Even Number: A number which is divisible by $2$ is called an even number.

Lets take any two odd numbers and one even number, and add them

$$\begin{gathered} \text{3+5+2 =10 (even)} \\ \text{5+7+4=16(even)} \\ \text{11+25+8=44(even)} \end{gathered}$$

Hence, The sum of two odd numbers and one even number is always even.

Hence, the given statement is True.
