In the following question, four number pairs are given. In each pair the number on left side of (-) is related to the number of the right side of (-) with some Logic/Rule /Relation. Three pairs are similar on basis of same Logic/Rule/Relation. Select the odd one out from the given alternatives. (NOTE: Operations should be performed on the whole numbers, without breaking down the numbers into its 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)
The question asks us to identify the number pair that does not follow the same logic or relation as the other three pairs. We are given four pairs of numbers, where the number on the left is related to the number on the right by some rule. We need to find this rule and see which pair doesn't fit.
Let's look at the provided number pairs:
The numbers on the left side are significantly larger than the numbers on the right side in each pair. This suggests that the operation relating the left number to the right number might be division, or the right number is a fraction or multiple of the left number.
Let's test if the left number is a multiple of the right number by dividing the left number by the right number for each pair.
Let's divide 56885 by 11377:
\( \frac{56885}{11377} \)
Performing the division:
\( 11377 \times 5 = 56885 \)
So, for this pair, \( 56885 = 5 \times 11377 \). The relation is that the left number is 5 times the right number.
Let's divide 38515 by 7701:
\( \frac{38515}{7701} \)
Let's try multiplying 7701 by 5:
\( 7701 \times 5 = 38505 \)
Comparing 38505 with 38515, we see that \( 38515 = 5 \times 7701 + 10 \). The left number is NOT exactly 5 times the right number.
Let's divide 74235 by 14847:
\( \frac{74235}{14847} \)
Let's try multiplying 14847 by 5:
\( 14847 \times 5 = 74235 \)
So, for this pair, \( 74235 = 5 \times 14847 \). The relation is that the left number is 5 times the right number.
Let's divide 82695 by 16539:
\( \frac{82695}{16539} \)
Let's try multiplying 16539 by 5:
\( 16539 \times 5 = 82695 \)
So, for this pair, \( 82695 = 5 \times 16539 \). The relation is that the left number is 5 times the right number.
We found the following relations for each pair:
Pairs 1, 3, and 4 follow the same logic where the left number is exactly 5 times the right number. Pair 2 does not follow this logic as the left number is not exactly 5 times the right number; there is a remainder of 10 when 38515 is divided by 7701.
Therefore, the odd one out is the pair 38515 - 7701.
| Pair | Left Number | Right Number | Relation (\( \text{Left} / \text{Right} \)) | Logic Followed? |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 56885 | 11377 | \( 56885 / 11377 = 5 \) | Yes (\( \text{Left} = 5 \times \text{Right} \)) |
| 2 | 38515 | 7701 | \( 38515 / 7701 \approx 5.0013 \) (Remainder 10) | No (\( \text{Left} \neq 5 \times \text{Right} \)) |
| 3 | 74235 | 14847 | \( 74235 / 14847 = 5 \) | Yes (\( \text{Left} = 5 \times \text{Right} \)) |
| 4 | 82695 | 16539 | \( 82695 / 16539 = 5 \) | Yes (\( \text{Left} = 5 \times \text{Right} \)) |
Based on the analysis, the pair 38515 - 7701 is the odd one out because it does not fit the rule \( \text{Left Number} = 5 \times \text{Right Number} \) that the other three pairs follow.
| Concept | Description | Example Relation Types |
|---|---|---|
| Number Series/Pairs | A sequence or set of numbers where elements are related by a specific rule or pattern. | Arithmetic Progression, Geometric Progression, Difference Series, Ratio Relation, Mixed Series. |
| Logic/Rule/Relation | The mathematical operation or pattern that connects the numbers in the series or pair. | Addition, Subtraction, Multiplication, Division, Squares, Cubes, Square Roots, Factorials, Combinations of operations. |
| Odd One Out | An element (number, pair, term) in a set that does not follow the same rule or pattern as the others. | Identify the common rule first, then find the element that violates it. |
When faced with questions asking to find the logic in number pairs or series, consider these strategies:
Applying these strategies systematically helps uncover the hidden relation and find the odd one out effectively.
