11/14

Odd/Even OperationsThere are rules:Odd number + Even

number =

Odd number ALWAYS.Odd + Odd = Even

Even + Even = EvenBut its easier to remember

by

using any even or odd number3 + 2 = 5 (odd number)

3 + 1 = 4 (even number)2 + 2 = 4 (even number)SAME IDEA, but not same

results for multiplication:3 2 = 6 (even number)

3 1 = 3 (odd number)

2 2 = 4 (even number)SAT often combines several of

the above rules:(odd+odd+even) odd

Use any even and any odd

number to determine ifresultis always even or odd:

( 3 + 3 + 2 ) 3 = 24

(even)

Multiplying Positive and

Negative Numbersa b c d All Positive Always PositiveAll Negative is not always

negative since two or any

EVEN number of negativenumbers CANCEL each

others negativity out. If ALL

a, b, c, and d are negative, theproduct is positive.

-1 -1 -1 -1 is POSITIVE ONE Negative number or any

other ODD number of

negatives NegativeDividing is the same as

multiplication.The SAT often has these

positive/negative questions

backwards. If the result ofa b c d is negative then?

(one OR three of a, b, c, d is

negative)
