Generating random 20 number between 0.25 to 2.8 and counter odd numbers in 'array'?
I can't do this :(
it's not working:
g=randi([0.25 2.8],1,20)
numberOfOddNumbers = sum(rem(g, 2))

a = .25;
b = 2.8;
r = (b-a).*rand(1,20) + a; % note that your creating floating numbers

You're right, I need to know if the three digit after the dot is odd and then the sum.

The majority of random numbers between 0.25 and 2.8 don't have just three digits after the dot. In fact an infinite number of them have an infinite numbers of digits after the dot.
In the real of computers, among the 15,312,238,733,059,687 numbers than can be generated there's only 2552 numbers with 3 or less digits after the dot. Most of these 2552 numbers can't even be stored exactly as double.

It seems to me what you're actually asking is to generate integer numbers between 250 and 2800. These numbers can easily be tested to see whether they're odd or even.
You can then pretend that these integers are divided by 1000 to get numbers between 0.25 and and 2.8 with at most 3 digits. Note that actually performing the division won't get you numbers that are actually at most 3 digits due to the way numbers are stored on a computer. For example, the result 400 / 1000 is not stored as 0.4, it is stored exactly as 0.40000000000000002220446049250313080847263336181640625.
numbers = randi([250 2800], 1, 20); %numbers are implicitly divided by 1000
sumodd = sum(mod(numbers, 2)); %as explained by Steven Lord, that's a weird definition of even/odd

1. See Madhan's answer
2. Easy enough
3. Now, we're back to talking about even/odd real numbers, which as explained by Steven Lord doesn't make any sense. If you're talking about fraction of 1000 numbers whose numerator is even or odd, then see my answer.
Nothing is particularly difficult as long as you use the same math as everybody else.

Okay, is it possible to check that the second digit after the point is odd?
for example:
2.45 - odd
1.38 - even
1.2 - even
0.89 - odd
