Odd Man Out Questions

Here the given series follows a pattern that, multiplying the number with odd numbers in decreasing order starting with 13. That is,

6 × 13 = 78

65 × 11 = 858

858 × 9 = 7722

7722 × 7 = 54054

54054 × 5 = 270270

Hence, the wrong number is 54055

Given Number series is 18     37     76     155     314     635

follows a pattern that, 

18

18 x 2 +1 = 37

37 x 2 +2 = 76

76 x 2 +3 = 155

155 x 2 +4 = 314

314 x 2 +5 = 633 not 635

Hence, the odd man is 635.

Here the given series 1, 6,  ?, 15, 45, 66, 91 follows a

Pattern in the series is, +5, +9, +13,...,.. +21, +25

So +4 is getting increased at every term addition.

Missing Number in the series will be 15+(9+4) = 15 + 13 = 28.

Next number of the sequence 1, 4, 12, 32,...

1 = 2 x 20

4 = 2 x 21

12 = 3 x 22

32 = 4 x 23

80 = 5 x 24.

1 x 1 + 1 x 1 = (1 + 1) = 2

2 x 2 + 2 x 2 = (4 + 4) = 8

8 x 3 + 3 x 3 = (24 + 9) = 33

33 x 4 + 4 x 4 = (132 + 16) = 148

148 x 5 + 5 x 5 = (740 + 25) = 765.

Given Number series is :

3   4   14   48   576   27648

It follows a pattern that,

3

4

4 x 3 = 12   but not 14

12 x 4 = 48

48 x 12 = 576

576 x 48 = 27648

Hence, the odd one in the given Number Series is 14.

The given number series is 

71      88       113       150       203          277

   +17    +25       +37      +53        +74

        +8      +12        +16       +21

            +4          +4         +5

The series should be  71  88  112   150    203   276 i.e, the differences of the difference should be +4.

Hence, the odd man in the given series is 277.

The given number series is 10, 21, 54, 109, 189

The series follows a pattern that

10 + 11 = 21

21 + 33 = 54

54 + 55 = 109

109 + 77 = 186

Hence the wrong number in the given number series is 189.
