Answer 1

i think its one hope its right
for eg if we take five we can add one to get the ans positive

Answer 2

1 (one) is the smallest number that must be added to an odd number to make it even

QUESTION:-

Which is the smallest number that must be added to an odd number to make it even?

GIVEN:- Number that must be added to an odd number to make it even

TO FIND:- The smallest number of the given

SOLUTION:-

• Even numbers are those numbers which can be divided into two equal parties or pairs and are specifically divisible by 2. For example, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and so on. 2 is the smallest even whole and natural number.

• Odd numbers are numbers that are cannot be completely divisible by 2. For example, 1, 3, 5, and so on. 1 is the smallest odd whole and natural number.

• The sum of two odd numbers is always an even number. Example 3 + 7 = 10

According to the question we need to find the smallest number that must be added to an odd number to make it even.

As we know,

• The sum of two odd numbers is always an even number.
• And 1 is the smallest odd whole and natural number.

Therefore when we add 1 to any odd number then the outcome will be an even number.

For example:-

• 3 + 1 = 4
• 9 + 1 = 10
• 27 + 1 = 28

Hence, 1 (one) is the smallest number that must be added to an odd number to make it even
