Three of the following four are alike in a certain way and thus form a group. Which is the one that does NOT belong to that group?
(NOTE: Operations should be performed on the whole numbers, without breaking down the numbers into their 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)
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 1 i.e. 46 - 41 - 12.
The logic used here is: (1st number - 2nd number) × 3 = 3rd number
Option 1: 46 - 41 - 12: 46 - 41 = 5, 5 × 3 = 15: This does not follow the logic.
