Put 5 sheep in each of three small pens... THEN - build a larger pen enclosing the three smaller ones. The smaller pens each have an odd number of sheep in them (5 in each) - and the large pen has a total of 15 sheep enclosed within it !

∙ 14y agoYou don't need to use all 35 pigs. You only need to ensure that there is an uneven number of pigs in each of the four pens. You could, for example, put 1 pig in each pen and therfore solve the problem.

2nd pen- 3 pigs
3rd pen- 3 pigs
4th pen- It is around the 1st,2nd and 3rd pen.
This is correct

Do animals have an even or odd number of chromosomes?
Humans have 46 chromosomes. To be more specific, they have 22 somatic (body) chromosomes from each parent, and one sex chromosome from each parent. Added together, humans have 46 chromosomes (or 23 pairs). However different animals have different numbers of chromosmes. But under normal circumstances, each has 1 copy from each parent, and 1 copy of a sex chromosome from each parent. For instance, mice have 40 chromosomes, a horse has 64, a cat and dog both have 38, and some species of elephants have 56. It depends on the animal because each animal has a different number of chromosomes.

If there are 27 sheep place them into four pens so there is an odd number of sheep in each pen?
it's impossible i thinkActually, if you consider the unrealistic situation of concentric pens with 1 sheep in the inner-most pen, 4 in the next outer pen, 18 in the next outer pen and finally 4 in the next outer pen, there are an odd number in each pen (1, 5, 23 and 27 sheep in each respective pen) and a total of 27 sheep overall.

An odd number plus an odd number is what kind of number?
An odd number plus an odd number will be an even number. Odd number A is (even number + 1) Odd number B is (even number + 1) A + B = (even number + 1) + (even number + 1) = even number + even number + 2 Since all even numbers are divisible by 2 and 2 is divisible by 2, each part of the result is divisible by 2, so the sum as a whole is divisible by 2, which means it is an even number.
