This set of Logical Reasoning Questions and Answers (MCQs) focuses on “Odd Man Out – Set 5”.
1. Find the odd one out.
a) Figure A
b) Figure B
c) Figure C
d) Figure D
View Answer
Explanation: Here, the figures present inside the box have even number of edges.
That is:
A ➔ 6 edges B ➔ 4 edges D ➔ 10 edges
But, in figure C the number of edges of the figure present inside the box is 3 (That is an odd number).
Hence, figure C is the answer.
2. Find the odd one out.
a) Dinar
b) Kwanza
c) Taka
d) Gaborone
View Answer
Explanation: Here, Dinar is the currency of Kuwait, Kwanza is the currency of Angola and Taka is the currency of Bangladesh.
But Gaborone is not a currency of any country but it is a capital city of Botswana.
Hence, Gaborone 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 equal to 12.
That is:
C ➔ 6 + 3 + 3 = 12 A ➔ 4 + 4 + 4 = 12 B ➔ 5 + 4 + 3 = 12
But in figure D:-
D ➔ 5 + 6 + 4 = 15
Hence, figure D is the answer.
4. Find the odd one out.
a) V
b) T
c) L
d) Z
View Answer
Explanation: Here, only two lines are required to write the letters ‘V’, ‘T’ and ‘L’.
That is:
V ➔ \ / (2 lines) T ➔ - | (2 lines) L ➔ | _ (2 Lines)
But for writing Z, 3 lines are required (i.e. – / _).
Hence, Z is the answer.
5. Find the odd one out.
a) 53:4096
b) 24:1296
c) 36:6561
d) 46:7893
View Answer
Explanation: Here, the options follows a pattern:-
53:4096 ⇒ 5 + 3 = 8:84 = 4096;
24:1296 ⇒ 2 + 4 = 6:64 = 1296;
36:6561 ⇒ 3 + 6 = 9:94 = 6561;
But 46:7893 does not follow this pattern (i.e. 4 + 6 = 10:104 ≠ 7893).
Hence, 46:7893 is the answer.
6. Find the odd one out.
a) DHL
b) FJN
c) KOS
d) MPU
View Answer
Explanation: Here, the letters given follows a pattern that is:-
D + 4 ➔ H + 4 ➔ L
F + 4 ➔ J + 4 ➔ N
K + 4 ➔ O + 4 ➔ S
But MPU does not follow this pattern (i.e. M + 3 ➔ P + 5 ➔ U)
Hence, MPU is the answer.
7. Find the odd one out.
a) 2:1:1:2
b) 5:4:7:20
c) 7:6:11:32
d) 9:8:15:72
View Answer
Explanation: Here, the numbers given in the data follows a pattern.
That is:
2 × 1 - 1 ➔ 1 × 2 - 1 ➔1 × 3 - 1 = 2 5 × 1 - 1 ➔ 4 × 2 - 1 ➔ 7 × 3 - 1 = 20 7 × 1 - 1 ➔ 6 × 2 - 1 ➔ 11 × 3 - 1 = 32
But, 9 × 1 – 1 ➔ 8 × 2 – 1 ➔ 15 × 3 – 1 ≠ 72
Hence, 9:8:15:72 is the answer.
8. Find the odd one out.
a) Earth
b) Mars
c) Jupiter
d) Venus
View Answer
Explanation: Here, Earth, Mars and Venus are rocky planets and are inner planets also comes before asteroid belt.
Whereas, Jupiter is a gas giant and is an outer planet also comes after asteroid belt.
Hence, Jupiter is the answer.
9. Find the odd one out.
a) Oak
b) Redwoods
c) Maple
d) Willow
View Answer
Explanation: Here, the trees Oak, Maple and Willow comes under the category of Deciduous trees (which sheds leaves usually in the autumn).
Whereas, Redwoods comes under the category of Coniferous trees (which have needles that do not fall off).
Hence, Redwoods is the answer.
10. Find the odd one out from the given data.
45, 75, 90, 125, 150
a) 45
b) 90
c) 125
d) 150
View Answer
Explanation: Here, the numbers 45, 75, 90 and 150 are divisible by 15 (multiple of 15).
That is:
45 ÷ 15 = 3 75 ÷ 15 = 5 90 ÷ 15 = 6 150 ÷ 15 = 10
But 125 in the given data is not divisible by 15 (not a multiple of 15).
Hence, 125 is the answer.
