A, B, C, D, E, F and G are seven positive integers. And given
a. AB is odd.
b. C+ DE is odd.
c. AD is odd.
d. FACG is odd.
How many of the above integers are odd?

-
- except E all are odd

- as given AB is odd,so A,&B must be odd no.
now for AD is odd, so D is also odd.
now for FACG is odd,F,A,C,G also odd.
now for C+DE is also odd, and we know C and D is odd. so E must be Even.
So A,B,C,D,F,G are odd and E is even.
(N.B:you can easily understand if you think it by taking some numerical value) - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(16) No(2)
- odd*odd=odd; so AB both are odd
as AD=odd,so D will be odd as well,
coming to next FACG=odd;so each of them should be odd.
But in second option its given that C+DE=ODD.....(1) ;(before we got C & D both are Odd)
so given (1) equation will be odd when E will be even.
Ans:-Only E is the even integer and rest are ODD. - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(3) No(0)

- 6 odds will be there

- AB odd => A odd B odd
C=DE odd => c odd D odd n E Evn
AD odd => D odd
FACG odd => F & G odd
ans all are odd except E

- ans::6,,,,,,By basics... ODD * ODD=ODD ,,,ODD*EVEN=EVEN,,,EVEN *EVEN=EVEN

- All are odd except E
