This set of Logical Reasoning Questions and Answers (MCQs) focuses on “Odd Man Out – Set 2”.
1. Find the odd one out.
a) RUPEES
b) EUROS
c) GRAM
d) POUNDS
View Answer
Explanation: Here, RUPEES is the currency of INDIA, EUROS is the currency of European countries and POUNDS is the currency of The United Kingdoms.
But GRAM is a measuring unit used to measure weights.
Hence, Gram is the answer.
2. Find the odd one out.
a) Printer
b) Pen Drive
c) Hard Disk
d) Random Access Memory
View Answer
Explanation: In a computer system, Random Access Memory is the primary memory used to store data primarily which is volatile in nature, Hard Disk is the secondary memory which is also used to store data, and Pen Drive is an external storage device which is also used to store data.
But Printer is used to give output in a computer system and it does not store any data in it.
Hence, Printer is the answer.
3. Find the odd one out from the following figures.
a) A
b) B
c) C
d) D
View Answer
Explanation: In all the figures the sum of the number of edges of the figure inside the box is odd.
i.e.
A ⇒ 3 + 4 = 7 (odd) C ⇒ 6 + 3 = 9 (odd) D ⇒ 5 + 4 = 9 (odd)
but for figure B:-
B ⇒ 5 + 3 = 8 (even)
Hence, figure B is the answer.
4. Find the odd one out from the given data.
Earth, Venus, Titan, Jupiter, Mercury
a) Mercury
b) Venus
c) Titan
d) Earth
View Answer
Explanation: In the solar system, Earth is the third planet from the Sun, Venus is the second planet from the Sun, Jupiter is the fifth planet from the Sun and Mercury is the closest planet to the Sun.
But Titan is a moon orbiting Saturn. Since all other options are the name of planets.
Hence, Titan is the answer.
5. Find the odd one out from the given set of numbers.
109, 262, 316, 541, 643, 811
a) 262
b) 541
c) 811
d) 643
View Answer
Explanation: Here, the sum of the digits of the number is 10.
i.e.
1 + 0 + 9 = 10 2 + 6 + 2 = 10 3 + 1 + 6 = 10 5 + 4 + 1 = 10 8 + 1 + 1 = 10
But the sum of the digits of 643 is not 10 (i.e. 6 + 4 + 3 = 13).
Hence, 643 is the answer.
6. Find the odd one out.
a) Taekwondo
b) Wrestling
c) Kabaddi
d) Chess
View Answer
Explanation: Here, Taekwondo is a Korean form of martial arts in which hands and feet of a person is used, Wrestling is an Olympic sport and, in this sport, also physical activity of the body is involved, and in Kabaddi also hands and feet are involved, but Chess is the only option in which no use of feet is involved while playing.
Hence, Chess is the answer.
7. Find the odd one out from the given data.
50, 85, 130, 185, 245
a) 85
b) 245
c) 130
d) 185
View Answer
Explanation: Here, the numbers given in the data follows a pattern.
i.e.
32 × 5 + 5 = 50 42 × 5 + 5 = 85 52 × 5 + 5 = 130 62 × 5 + 5 = 185
But 245 does not follow this pattern (i.e. 72 × 5 = 245).
Hence, 245 is the answer.
8. Find the odd one out from the given data.
DRILLING, MILLING, BORING, BRAZING
a) DRILLING
b) MILLING
c) BORING
d) BRAZING
View Answer
Explanation: DRILLING is the process of making hole in something, MILLING is the process of machining using rotary cutters and BORING is the process of enlarging a hole that has already been drilled.
But BRAZING is a metal-joining process in which two or more metal items are joined together.
Since all other options are cutting processes except BRAZING which is a joining process,
Hence, BRAZING is the answer.
9. Find the odd one out from the given data.
ADG, HKN, JMP, RUX, PRT
a) HKN
b) JMP
c) PRT
d) RUX
View Answer
Explanation: Here, the group of letters follow a pattern of (n + 3), where n is the position of alphabet.
i.e.
A + 3 = D, D + 3 = G ⇒ ADG H + 3 = K, K + 3 = N ⇒ HKN J + 3 = M, M + 3 = P ⇒ JMP R + 3 = U, U + 3 = X ⇒ RUX
But PRT does not follow this pattern (i.e. P + 2 = R, R + 1 = T ⇒ PRT).
Hence, PRT is the answer.
10. Find the odd one out from the given data.
26, 39, 65, 84, 91
a) 26
b) 39
c) 91
d) 84
View Answer
Explanation: Here, the numbers 26, 39, 65 and 91 are divisible by 13 (i.e. multiple of 13).
i.e.
26 ÷ 13 = 2 39 ÷ 13 = 3 65 ÷ 13 = 5 91 ÷ 13 = 7
But 84 in the given data is not divisible by 13 (i.e. not a multiple of 13).
Hence, 84 is the answer.
