Trial and error currently. It's a calculator question so that's all I've been using.

I understand it must be a even number but that's not set in stone?.

Any support helpful

Why is it even? Multiples of 5 end in 0 or 5 so if the number gives a remainder of 3 when divided by 5 it must end in either what or what?
