Q. Find the odd one out from the given set of numbers.
14, 28, 35, 46, 56, 84
14, 28, 35, 46, 56, 84
β
Correct Answer: (B)
46
Explanation: Here, the numbers 14, 28, 35, 56 and 84 are perfectly divisible by 7.
i.e.
14 ÷ 7 = 2
28 ÷ 7 = 4
35 ÷ 7 = 5
56 ÷ 7 = 8
84 ÷ 7 = 12
But the number 46 is not perfectly divisible by 7 (i.e. not a multiple of 7).
Hence, 46 is the answer.
