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)
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 1
The logic followed here is :
ist number × 3 = second number
726 - 2278 ⇒ 726 × 3 = 2178 ≠ 2278
1248 - 3744 ⇒ 1248 × 3 = 3744
1024 - 3072 ⇒ 1024 × 3 = 3072
336 - 1008 ⇒ 336 × 3 = 1008
