Julie says I added three odd numbers and my answer was 50 explain why Julie cannot be correct
2 answers:
Julie cannot be right. That's because if you add three odd numbers together, <em>you always get an odd number. </em>The number 50 is an Even number.
Let's try adding 3 odd numbers together a couple of times...
3 + 3 + 3 = 9
5 + 1 + 5 = 11
7 + 3 + 5 = 15
We tried 3 examples, we could not get any even number. So, Julie's claim is wrong.

Answer:
x=125
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve we must find a number that when divided by 5 equals 25.
To do this we can either...
Take each answer choice and plug in the value into the x spot and see if it works...
5/5=25 WRONG
10/5=25 WRONG
25/5=25 WRONG
125/5=25 CORRECT!
ORRR... we can set the equation so that the x is alone on one side.
To do this we can multiply both sides by 5
=25 ---> x=25×5
x=125
