Odd Man Out Questions

The given number series is 35, 36, 55, 111, ?

35

35 x 1 + 1 = 36

36 x 1.5 + 1 = 55

55 x 2 + 1 = 111

111 x 2.5 + 1 = 278.5

Hence, the next number in the given number series is 278.5.

The given series is 1 6 27 124 650

1

1 + 2 x 2 = 6

6 + 3 x 3 = 27

27 + 4 x 4 = 124

124 + 5 x 5 = 645 (NOT 650)

Hence, the odd man in the given number series is 650.

The given number series is 96, 95, 87, 78, ? 

It follows a pattern that,

$$\begin{gathered} 96 \\ 96 - 12 = 95 \\ 95 - 23 = 95 - 8 = 87 \\ 87 - 32 = 87 - 9 = 78 \\ 78 - 43 = 78 - 64 = 14 \end{gathered}$$

Hence, the next number in the given number series is 14.

The given number series 22, 26, 42, 78, 142, 244 follows a pattern that,

$$\begin{gathered} 22 \\ 22 + 22 = 22 + 4 = 26 \\ 26 + 42 = 26 + 16 = 42 \\ 42 + 62 = 42 + 36 = 78 \\ 78 + 82 = 78 + 64 = 142 \\ 142 + 102 = 142 + 100 = 242 \end{gathered}$$ 

Hence, the odd one in the given number series is 244.

Here the given series 222, 271, 308, 332, 348, 357 follows a pattern that

222

222 + 49  271

271 + 36 = 307 (NOT 308)

307 + 25 = 332

332 + 16 = 348

348 + 9 = 357

Hence, the odd man in the fiven number series is 308.

The given number series is 3  24  186  1008  5040  20160

Here  the given series follows a pattern that,

3

3 x 8 = 24

24 x 7 = 168 not 186

168 x 6 = 1008

1008 x 5 =  5040

5040 x 4 = 20160

Hence the Odd One in the number series is 186.

The given number series 2, 19, 0, 21, –2, ? follows a pattern,

2

2 + 17 = 19

19 - 19 = 0

0 + 21 = 21

21 - 23 = -2

-2 + 25 = 23

Hence, the next number in the series is 23.
