(a)(b)(c)(d)(e) - (a + b + c + d + e) = even
Case I:
(a)(b)(c)(d)(e) = odd
(a + b + c + d + e) = odd
Case II:
(a)(b)(c)(d)(e) = even
(a + b + c + d + e) = even
A. Number of even integers 0 - Case I
(odd + odd + odd + odd + odd) = odd
B. Number of even integers 1 - Case II
(even + odd + odd + odd + odd) = even
C. Number of even integers 2 - Neither Case I or II
(even + even + odd + odd + odd) = odd
D. Number of even integers 3 - Case II
(even + even + even + odd + odd) = even
E. Number of even integers 4 - Neither Case I or II
(even + even + even + even + odd) = odd
F. Number of even integers 5 - Case II
(even + even + even + even + even) = even
Hence, option C and E
