Identify the odd set: (5,10,20), (7,14,28), (4,8,16), (6,12,25)
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The pattern followed in the given sets is:
• Second number = First number × 2
• Third number = Second number × 2
Let's check the options:
• (5, 10, 20): 5 × 2 = 10, and 10 × 2 = 20
• (7, 14, 28): 7 × 2 = 14, and 14 × 2 = 28
• (4, 8, 16): 4 × 2 = 8, and 8 × 2 = 16
• (6, 12, 25): 6 × 2 = 12, but 12 × 2 = 24 ≠ 25
Hence, (6, 12, 25) is the odd set.
