3 odd cards. So to figure out how many ways this can occur, we calculate how many ways we can choose 3 cards from among the 6 odd cards--6C3 ways or 20 ways.
2.
2 even cards + 1 odd card. So how many ways can we choose 2 even cards out of 2 even cards--2C2 = one way and then we calculate the number of ways we can 1 odd card from the remaining 6 odd cards--6C1 = 6 ways. So, the total number of ways to get this type of 3-card hand is 1*6 = 6 ways.
3.
So the total number of ways of ending with an odd total is 20 + 6 or 26 ways.
