Practicing Success
The second number in the given number-pairs is obtained by performing certain mathematical operation s) on the first number. The same operation(s) are followed in all the number-pairs EXCEPT one. Find that odd number-pair. |
3 : 14 5 : 63 7 : 172 9 : 355 |
9 : 355 |
THE LOGIC; (Cube of 1st number \(\div \) 2) + 0.5 = 2nd number) 1) 3:14, (\( {3}^{3} \) \(\div \) 2) +0.5 27 \(\div \) 2 +0.5 14 2) 5:63, (\( {5}^{3} \) \(\div \) 2) +0.5 125 \) \(\div \ 2+0.5 63 3) 7:172, (\( {7}^{3} \) \(\div \) 2) +0.5 343 \) \(\div \) 2+0.5 172 4) 9:355, (\( {9}^{3} \) \(\div \) 2) +0.5 364.5+0.5 365 not 355 Thus, 9:355 is the odd one. |
