If m is the median of 3 consecutive positive integers then which one must be true? (1) m>0 (2) m is odd or even (3) m is an integer.
I dont have the solution to this but i feel that 1 and 3 must be true. What is your take on this?

i think
all of them must be true
3 consecutive positive integers- so middle term is the median.
so it must be an integer
it must be positive
and an integer has to be either even or odd

The powers of two are bloody impolite!!
