Synopsis

Tyler's challenge:

5 is a even number! Do you want to know why!!! This is how that number is even.If you split 5 in 1/2 it will be 2.5. If you use cookies you give 2 to you and 2 someone else.Then you split the last cookie in 1/2.1/2 goes to you and the other 1/2 goes to someone else.In class we have been debating that the number is even or odd I say its even! I can prove this with any number that is not even.I came up with this one day in class.If you disagree that is perfictly fine.

Comments: Zach: I believe that there is no such thing as odd numbers because you can divide any number if you use decimals. Evan: I believe the there is no such thing as a odd number cause you can divide any number using decimals like so 5 divided by 2 = 2.5 and .5 is a decimal. So really the word "odd" doesn't exist.

Will: there is no such thing as a odd number. If you have five cookies, me and Mrs White each get 2 there is one left but you can split it and you both get a half.

 Noa: =**There Are Odd Numbers Because...... ** =

=**Let's say we were playing a game when you have to play with the same amount of people on both teams and there were 15 people playing, I can't just suddenly cut one person in half. ** =

Blaine: I think that there are odd numbers and 5 is a even number because if you have 5 kids and split them up, half goes to play games for half hour and the other half goes to eat lunch for half a hour and then the two groups switch.

Teryn: There is only 1 odd number, that number is 1 because if you have one person you can not put them in two different places at the same time, unless you cut them in half. But you could have 1 cookie you can cut it evenly. So people can say there is no odd numbers but they are not looking at it like you are.

India:

== i think that five is not an odd number because you can divide five in half and it will be even. i am confused about the number one because it could be an odd or an even and i am not sure if it is only odd or only even. ==

Gracie:

==** i do believe and i do not because most numbers are even but there is one number that is odd and it is 1. i mean you can split like 3 5 7 9 in haft but no one can split 1. You can split 5 in haft because say you had 5 people and you had to split them up for math, for an hour 3 kids go to Miss Whites' and the other haft goes to Miss Alberston's room then the next hour they swich, that would be even but i am still a little caunfused. ** ==

Gabe: I agee with Tyler half way

there are odd numbers in whole numbers but there are no odd numbers in fracshons but this dosn`t apply with live things.

Owen:

But always remember that in whole numbers there is definitely odd numbers. But, in decimals there is no such thing. ======

Jessica: October 26 Odd Even <span style="background-color: #ff8888; border-bottom-color: #333333; border-bottom-style: dotted; border-bottom-width: 2px; color: #880000; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: inherit;">There is such thing as odd number because if there is no odd number than why do they talk about odd numbers Jessica: November 8 Odd Even There is such thing as odd numbers because they only go in the rational catigory and not in the irrational catigory.
