Question : Directions: In the following question, find the odd number from the given alternatives.
Option 1: 18
Option 2: 40
Option 3: 82
Option 4: 180
Correct Answer: 82
Solution : Let's check the options –
First option:
18; 4 x 4 = 16→4 – 2 = 2→16 + 2 = 18
Second option:
40; 6 x 6 = 36→6 – 2 = 4→36 + 4 = 40
Third option:
82; 9 x 9 = 81→9 – 2 = 7→81 + 7 = 88 ≠ 82
Fourth option:
180; 13 x 13 = 169→13 – 2 = 11→169 + 11 = 180
So, the third option does not follow the pattern of squaring a number and adding 2 less than the number to the resultant. Hence, the third option is correct.
