Question : Directions: In the following question, find the odd number pair from the given alternatives.
Option 1: 1, 0.75, 0.5, 1.25
Option 2: 4, 3, 2, 5
Option 3: 1, 4, 2, 8
Option 4: 2, 1.5, 1, 2.5
Correct Answer: 1, 4, 2, 8
Solution :
Let's check each option –
First option:
(1, 0.75, 0.50, 1.25); 1 – 0.25 = 0.75; 0.75 – 0.25 = 0.50; 1 + 0.25 = 1.25
Second option:
(4, 3, 2, 5); 4 – 1 = 3; 3 – 1 = 2; 4 + 1 = 5
Third option:
(1, 4, 2, 8); 1 + 3 = 4; 4 – 2 = 2; 2 + 6 = 8
Fourth option:
(2, 1.5, 1, 2.5); 2 – 0.5 = 1.5; 1.5 – 0.5 = 1; 2 + 0.5 = 2.5
So, only the third option doesn't follow the same pattern as followed by the given set of numbers. Hence, the third option is correct.
