Make logical decisions about what is included and what is excluded.

ODD:
The number is an integer, and not evenly divisible by 2; meaning an integer ending in 1, 3, 5, 7, or 9.

The number could be ...,-11,-9,-7,-5,-3,-1,1,3,4,5,...
to no end left or right.

MULTIPLE OF 5:
Means any of ...,-15,-10,-5,0,5, 10,15, 20, 25,...
REMEMBER, the number was given as odd; so this means we are evaluating for
...,-15,-5,5,15,25,35,...

GREATER THAN 28:
What are odd numbers greater than 28?
... and multiples of 5?
35,45,55,65,75,...

LESS THAN 32:

BROKEN! The lowest number you have in the set is 35, and this is NOT less than 32. The last two requirements with the set so narrowed are not compatible.

NO SOLUTION.

, with N being the number
The ONLY multiple of 5 that’s between 28 and 32, is 30.
If it's a multiple of 5, greater than 28, but less than 32, then it MUST BE even, and is 30.
If it's ODD, greater than 28, but less than 32, then it's NOT a MULTIPLE of 5.
