Question : Directions: The second number in the given number pairs is obtained by performing certain mathematical operation(s) on the first number. The same operation(s) are followed in all the number pairs except one. Find that odd number pair.
(NOTE: Operations should be performed on whole numbers, without breaking down the numbers into their constituent digits. E.g. 13 – operations on 13 such as adding/subtracting/multiplying, etc. to 13 can be performed. Breaking down 13 into 1 and 3 and then performing mathematical operations on 1 and 3 is not allowed.)
Option 1: 21 : 100
Option 2: 19 : 88
Option 3: 13 : 64
Option 4: 17 : 80

Correct Answer: 21 : 100
Solution :
Let's check each option –
First option:
21 : 100; (21 + 3) × 4 = 24 × 4 = 96 ≠ 100
Second option:
19 : 88; (19 + 3) × 4 = 22 × 4 = 88
Third option:
13 : 64; (13 + 3) × 4 = 16 × 4 = 64
Fourth option:
17 : 80; (17 + 3) × 4 = 20 × 4 = 80
So, only the first option doesn't follow the same pattern as followed by the given set of numbers. Hence, the first option is correct.
