Remember:
Even * Odd = Even
Even + Odd = Odd
A) pq is even --> wrong
B) p/q is even --> wrong
C) p-q is negative
D) p + q is only a positive odd integer if q > |p|, but we don't know that
E) q- p must be a positive odd integer, bc. - p is actually + since -(-)= + and odd +even = odd --> correct answer, E
Even * Odd = Even
Even + Odd = Odd
A) pq is even --> wrong
B) p/q is even --> wrong
C) p-q is negative
D) p + q is only a positive odd integer if q > |p|, but we don't know that
E) q- p must be a positive odd integer, bc. - p is actually + since -(-)= + and odd +even = odd --> correct answer, E
