You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Lets just look at the visual representations
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Addition,,,,0+0=00,,000+000=000000,,00000+00000=0000000000,, in short when we increment an odd number on top of an odd number ,,,it will be even.
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "If this was multiplication this would be an odd number taken an even number of times,,,(2)
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( ".\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Multiplication,,,,is repeated addition,,,but
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "1*1 = 0,,,,,
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "3*3 = 000
\n" ); document.write( ",,,,,,000
\n" ); document.write( ",,,,,,000,,,,,,,,,or the summation of an odd number by and odd number of sets.
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "5*5,,,,=,,,,00000
\n" ); document.write( ",,,,,,,,,,,,00000
\n" ); document.write( ",,,,,,,,,,,,00000
\n" ); document.write( ",,,,,,,,,,,,00000
\n" ); document.write( ",,,,,,,,,,,,00000,,,,,again an odd number taken an odd number of times
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( ".
