Detailed Solution & Logic
3
Required condition
We need the pattern:
(Odd, Odd, Even)
Odd numbers = 1, 3, 5, 7, 9
Even numbers = 2, 4, 6, 8
Checking left to right
Series:
4 3 5 1 2 9 8 9 4 7 7 4 5 4 8 5 6 2 4 7 3 3 4 6 3 7 5
Now find positions where:
-
Previous number → Odd
-
Middle number → Odd (count this)
-
Next number → Even
Valid cases:
-
5 1 2 ✅ (Odd, Odd, Even) → count 1
-
7 7 4 ✅ → count 2
-
3 3 4 ✅ → count 3
No other group satisfies the condition.
✅ Final Answer:
👉 3 such odd numbers.
