This set of Logical Reasoning Questions and Answers (MCQs) focuses on “Odd Man Out – Set 8”.
1. Find the odd one out.
a) Figure A
b) Figure B
c) Figure C
d) Figure D
View Answer
Explanation: Here, figure A is a heptagon in which number of sides = 7, figure B is an octagon in which number of sides = 8, figure C is a hexagon in which number of sides = 6 and figure D is a square in which number of sides = 4.
Since, in all the figures the number of sides is an even number except for heptagon, therefore, figure A is the answer.
2. Find the odd one out.
a) S
b) M
c) O
d) T
View Answer
Explanation: Here, the letters M, O and T have exactly same mirror images.
i.e.
M | M O | O T | T
But, letter S has inverted mirror image (i.e. S | Ꙅ).
Hence, S is the answer.
3. Find the odd one out from the following figures.
a) A
b) B
c) C
d) D
View Answer
Explanation: Here, in all the figures the sum of edges of the figures present inside the box is equals to nine.
i.e. ➔
A ⇒ 6 + 3 = 9 B ⇒5 + 4 = 9 D ⇒3 + 3 + 3 = 9
But, in figure C the sum of edges of the figures is not equals to nine (i.e. 7 + 3 = 10 ≠ 9).
Hence, figure C is the answer.
4. Find the odd one out.
a) 1203 – 1453
b) 2401 – 2651
c) 3825 – 4075
d) 7524 – 7804
View Answer
Explanation: Here, in all the pair of numbers the second number is 250 more than the first number.
i.e.
1203 + 250 = 1453 2401 + 250 = 2651 3825 + 250 = 4075
But, 7524 + 250 ≠ 7804.
Hence, 7524 – 7804 is the answer.
5. Find the odd one out.
a) 65 : 29
b) 34 : 11
c) 76 : 41
d) 27 : 15
View Answer
Explanation: Here, the options follows a pattern:-
65 : 29 ⇒ 6 × 5 = 30 : 30 – 1 = 29;
34 : 11 ⇒ 3 × 4 = 12 : 12 – 1 = 11;
76 : 41 ⇒ 7 × 6 = 42 : 42 – 1 = 41;
But 27 : 15 does not follow this pattern (i.e. 2 × 7 = 14 : 14 – 1 ≠ 15).
Hence, 27 : 15 is the answer.
6. Find the odd one out.
a) BKM
b) ENP
c) GPR
d) NTZ
View Answer
Explanation: Here, the letters given follows a pattern.
i.e. ➔
B + 9 ➔ K + 2 ➔ M E + 9 ➔ N + 2 ➔ P G + 9 ➔ P + 2 ➔ R
But NTZ does not follow this pattern (i.e. N + 6 ➔ T + 6 ➔ Z).
Hence, NTZ is the answer.
7. Find the odd one out.
a) 3 : 25
b) 5 : 35
c) 8 : 50
d) 6 : 30
View Answer
Explanation: Here, the numbers given in the data follows a pattern.
i.e.
(3 + 2) × 5 ➔ 25 (5 + 2) × 5 ➔ 35 (8 + 2) × 5 ➔ 50
But, (6 + 2) × 5 ≠ 30
Hence, 6 : 30 is the answer.
8. Find the odd one out.
a) Maurya Dynasty
b) Mughal Dynasty
c) Shunga Dynasty
d) Nanda Dynasty
View Answer
Explanation: Here, the given options are the dynasties founded by Indian rulers.
i.e. ➔
Maurya Dynasty ➔ Chandragupta Maurya (323 - 185 B.C.E) Shunga Dynasty ➔ Pushyamitra Shunga (185 - 75 B.C.E) Nanda Dynasty ➔ Mahapadma Nanda (345 - 321 B.C.E)
But, Mughal Dynasty is founded by Babur in 1526 which is not an Indian ruler.
Hence, Mughal Dynasty is the answer.
9. Find the odd one out.
a) Gmail
b) Outlook
c) Yahoo! Mail
d) Facebook
View Answer
Explanation: Here, the given options Gmail, Outlook and Yahoo! Mail are the web mail services used to send Electronic mails through internet from one account to another.
Whereas, Facebook is a social networking service and website started in February 2004 by Mark Zuckerberg.
Hence, Facebook is the answer.
10. Find the odd one out from the given data.
a) 4 – 24
b) 8 – 48
c) 12 – 82
d) 15 – 90
View Answer
Explanation: Here, the given options follow a pattern.
i.e.
4 ➔ 4 × 6 = 24; 8 ➔ 8 × 6 = 48; 15 ➔ 15 × 6 = 90;
But 12 – 82 in the given options does not follow this pattern (i.e. 12 ➔ 12 × 6 ≠ 82).
Hence, 12 – 82 is the answer.
