Question

Which is the odd number in the series: 2, 4, 8, 10, 16?

• A. 2
• B. 4
• C. 8
• D. 10

Hint:

When analyzing number series, identify common patterns such as powers of numbers or arithmetic progressions. The odd number often stands out by deviating from the pattern.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

The series 2, 4, 8, 10, 16 is mostly composed of numbers that are powers of 2 (2, 4, 8, 16).
The odd one out is 10, as it does not fit into this pattern.
