Answer 2

Given:

Consider the given sequence 4, 12, 44, 176, 890

Find:

Need to find odd one

Solution:

Since the given set of sequence is divisible by 4 except 890 therefore it must be odd in this sequence but in all the given options 890 is not listed therefore

we observe new set of pattern

4 x 2+4 = 12

12 x 3 + 6= 42

42 x 4 + 8 = 176

176 x 5 + 10 = 890

Therefore 42 is correct but here we have given 44

Hence the odd one 44

The correct option is (c).
