If five darts hit between 2 and 10 -- then the minimum would be 10 and the maximum would be 50.

Which of your numbers are above 50 or below 10?

Would any of the scores add up to an odd number?
so 6 is the only one "Not Possible".
correct?
No. 6 is only one of the not possibles.

I see one score over 50.

What about the odd numbers? What combination of scores would add up to 23, 31, or 15?
6, 15, 23, 31, 58..these are the "not possible" scores.
I know that she threw 5 darts
The possible scores are 2,4,6,8,10
Each dart hit the target
some of these numbers are not her final score, 38, 23, 58, 30, 42, 31, 26, 6, 14, 15.

I know the minimum score she can get is 10, because 5 times 2 is 10, and the Maximum score she can get is 50 because 5 times 10 is 50.
so I know that anything less than 10 and more than 50 is wrong. like, 58 and 6.
And the number has to be a even number so, 58, 6,15,23 and 31 are impossible outcomes
