Sorry, it can't be done. 3 ODD numbers always add up to an ODD number, never to an EVEN number like 30. Want proof? Below, the computer has added every possible combination of three odd numbers, repeated or not. as you see, every one adds to an ODD number, never to an EVEN number like 30. 1 + 1 + 1 = 3, which is an ODD number, NOT 30. 1 + 1 + 3 = 5, which is an ODD number, NOT 30. 1 + 1 + 5 = 7, which is an ODD number, NOT 30. 1 + 1 + 7 = 9, which is an ODD number, NOT 30. 1 + 1 + 9 = 11, which is an ODD number, NOT 30. 1 + 1 + 11 = 13, which is an ODD number, NOT 30. 1 + 1 + 13 = 15, which is an ODD number, NOT 30. 1 + 1 + 15 = 17, which is an ODD number, NOT 30. 1 + 3 + 3 = 7, which is an ODD number, NOT

3 odd numbers between 1and 15 their sum is 30.you can repeat the number

Will you EVER stop submitting this problem? I must have seen this problem as many as "over 50" times.
Maybe it has been submitted even more. When do you intend to stop submitting it? I'm tired of seeing it!!
Will you stop? Better yet, can you explain why you keep submitting it, day in, day out? I'm curious......very!!
