This set of Logical Reasoning Questions and Answers (MCQs) focuses on “Odd Man Out – Set 3”.
1. Find the odd one out.
a) Figure A
b) Figure B
c) Figure C
d) Figure D
View Answer
Explanation: Here, figure A, figure B and figure D follows a pattern of symbols which are present on its corners that is figure B is 90° rotated representation of figure A. And figure D is the mirror image of figure A. But figure C is neither rotated representation of figure A, nor mirror image of figure A (i.e. not related with figure A).
Hence, figure C is the answer.
2. Find the odd one out.
a) Kohima
b) Imphal
c) Guwahati
d) Dispur
View Answer
Explanation: Here, Kohima is the capital of Nagaland state, Imphal is the capital of Manipur state and Dispur is the capital of Assam state of India. But Guwahati is a city in Assam and not a capital of any state in India.
Hence, Guwahati 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 + 4 = 11 (odd) C ⇒ 6 + 3 + 4 = 13 (odd) D ⇒ 5 + 4 + 6 = 15 (odd)
but for figure B:-
B ⇒ 5 + 3 + 4 = 12 (even)
Hence, figure B is the answer.
4. Find the odd one out.
a) N
b) L
c) H
d) A
View Answer
Explanation: Here, it requires 3 lines to write the letters N (i.e. | \ |), H (i.e. | – |) and A (i.e. / – \).
But to write the letter L, we need only 2 lines (i.e. | _).
Hence, L is the answer.
5. Find the odd one out.
a) 23 : 25
b) 13 : 16
c) 34 : 49
d) 45 : 47
View Answer
Explanation: Here, the options follows a pattern:-
23 : 25 ⇒ 2 + 3 = 5 : 52 = 25;
13 : 16 ⇒ 1 + 3 = 4 : 42 = 16;
34 : 49 ⇒ 3 + 4 = 7 : 72 = 49;
But 45 : 47 does not follow this patters (i.e. 4 + 5 = 9 : 92 ≠ 47).
6. Find the odd one out.
a) AEG
b) DHJ
c) RVX
d) KNT
View Answer
Explanation: Here, the letters given follows a pattern i.e.:-
A + 4 ➔ E + 2 ➔ G
D + 4 ➔ H + 2 ➔ J
R + 4 ➔ V + 2 ➔ X
But KNT does not follow this pattern (i.e. K + 3 ➔ N + 6 ➔ T).
Hence, KNT is the answer.
7. Find the odd one out.
a) 87
b) 198
c) 381
d) 441
View Answer
Explanation: Here, the numbers given in the data follows a pattern.
i.e.
33 × 3 + 6 = 87 43 × 3 + 6 = 198 53 × 3 + 6 = 381
But 441 does not follow this pattern (i.e. 72 × 9 = 441).
Hence, 441 is the answer.
8. Find the odd one out.
a) Iron
b) Mercury
c) Copper
d) Rubber
View Answer
Explanation: Here, the given options Iron, Mercury and Copper are conductors (i.e. these substances has free electrons in them due to which they can conduct electricity through them).
Whereas, Rubber is an insulator (i.e. it does not have free electrons in it, so it cannot conduct electricity through it).
Hence, Rubber is the answer.
9. Find the odd one out.
a) Charles’s Law
b) Boyle’s Law
c) Commutative Law
d) Gay-Lussac’s
View Answer
Explanation: Here, the options Charles’s Law, Boyle’s Law and Gay-Lussac’s Law are the laws of “Thermodynamics” (i.e. are related to heat, pressure and volume of different fluids).
Whereas Commutative Law is a law in mathematics (i.e. a + b = b + a or a × b = b × a).
Hence, Commutative Law is the answer.
10. Find the odd one out from the given data.
54, 90, 126, 162, 171
a) 54
b) 126
c) 162
d) 171
View Answer
Explanation: Here, the numbers 54, 90, 126 and 162 are divisible by 18 (i.e. multiple of 18).
i.e.
54 ÷ 18 = 3 90 ÷ 18 = 5 126 ÷ 18 = 7 162 ÷ 18 = 9
But 171 in the given data is not divisible by 18 (i.e. not a multiple of 18).
Hence, 171 is the answer.
