If n is odd then,
Sum of odd no.s n times is not possible.
For ex :-
1+3+5+7+9 = 25
In the above case, 1,3,5,7 and 9 are odd no.s and these odd no.s are totally added 5 times and 5(i.e. n) is odd. Therefore, it can not have an even sum like 30.
So, this question is can't be solved.

It cannot be done.
All the choices are odd numbers. The sum of five odd numbers must necessarily be odd. 30 is not odd, so 30 is not a possible sum.
