That`s not possible because 2 odd= 1 even , 5 odd is always odd . So this question is not possible. And if any other answer of this Question exist please tell me

The answer given 30 is wrong.Becoz sum of 5 odd numbers must be odd so it can`t be answer.for eg: 1+3=4,4+5=9,9+7=16,16+9=25. Therefore odd+odd=evenEven+odd=oddOdd+odd=evenEven+odd=odd
