Question:

Select the odd group of numbers. (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)

Options:

(600-300-150)

(400-200-50)

(1000-500-250)

(200-100-50)

Correct Answer:

(400-200-50)

Explanation:

(600-300-150) = 600 , 600 ÷ 2 = 300 , 300 ÷ 2 = 150


(400-200-50) = 400 , 400 ÷ 2 = 200 , 200 ÷ 2 = 100 but 50 is given which is odd


(1000-500-250) = 1000 , 1000 ÷ 2 = 500 , 500 ÷ 2 = 250


(200-100-50) = 200 , 200 ÷ 2 = 100 , 100 ÷ 2 = 50
