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)
    A 35 – 101 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 42 – 122 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 29 – 83 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 33 – 98 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The logic followed here is: The 1st number is multiplied by 3 and then four is subtracted from it to get the 2nd number. 35 – 101 = {(35 X 3) - 4} = {105 - 4} = 101 42 – 122 = {(42 X 3) - 4} = {126 - 4} = 122 29 – 83 = {(29 X 3) - 4} = {87 - 4} = 83 33 – 98 = {(33 X 3) - 4} = {99 - 4} = 95
