ITS TIMED HELP Assuming x and y are two odd numbers and x/y is an integer. Which of the following statements are true?

1: x + y is odd.
2: xy is odd.
3: x/y is odd.
4: x-y is odd.

A: 1 and 2 only.
B: 1 and 3 only.
C: 2 and 3 only.
D: 2, 3, and 4 only.
E: 2 and 4 only.​

  C: 2 and 3 only.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know the sum or difference of two odd numbers is even, eliminating choices (1) and (4).

The product of two odd numbers is odd, so (2) is one of the true statements.

__

Let x/y = k, where x and y are both odd. Then x = ky. If k is even, then x is even, a contradiction. So, k must be odd. The integer ratio of two odd numbers is odd, so (3) is one of the true statements.

Only statements (2) and (3) are true.
