In order for the number to be odd, the 'ones digit' must be odd. The other digits can be anything.
The number will be of the form ABCD - where D must be odd.
How many choices do we have for the digit 'A'? We can use any of the 5 given digits.
How many for B? Again 5 digits
How many for C? Again 5 digits?
How many for D? Only 3 (1,3 and 5).
Do the number of combinations will be
5*5*5*3 = 375
