Question:

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)

Options:

9 - 80

7 - 52

5 - 24

11 - 120

Correct Answer:

7 - 52

Explanation:
The logic followed here is:

9 - 80 = 92 - 1 = 81

7 - 52 = 72 - 1 = 81

5 - 24 = 52 - 1 = 24 but 25 is given ODD

11 - 120 = 112 - 1 = 120
