Odd One Out/Classification

Question:

Four number groups are given, out of which three are same in a certain way. Find the odd group that does not belong to the group?

Options:

(6, 9, 35) 

(8, 12, 63)

(10, 15, 99)

(2, 3, 5)

Correct Answer:

(2, 3, 5)

Explanation:

6 → 6 × \(\frac{3}{2}\) = 9    (6)2 – 1 = 35 ,

8 → 8 × \(\frac{3}{2}\) = 12  (8)2 – 1  = 63 ,

10 → 10 × \(\frac{3}{2}\) = 15    (10)2 – 1  = 99 ,

But in option (4) it is not following the above pattern,

2 → 2 × \(\frac{3}{2}\) = 3    (2)2 – 1 = 3
