To find Cary's number, we need to consider the odd numbers between 32 and 48 and check which ones have a sum of digits equal to 5.
The odd numbers between 32 and 48 are: 33, 35, 37, 39, 41, 43, 45, 47.
Let's check their sum of digits:
- For 33: 3 + 3 = 6 (not equal to 5)
- For 35: 3 + 5 = 8 (not equal to 5)
- For 37: 3 + 7 = 10 (not equal to 5)
- For 39: 3 + 9 = 12 (not equal to 5)
- For 41: 4 + 1 = 5 (equal to 5! Possible answer)
- For 43: 4 + 3 = 7 (not equal to 5)
- For 45: 4 + 5 = 9 (not equal to 5)
- For 47: 4 + 7 = 11 (not equal to 5)
So the number that satisfies the conditions is 41. Cary's number is 41.
