Question

Find the odd one out.
2, 5, 10, 17, 26, 37, 50, 64

• A. 5
• B. 17
• C. 50
• D. 64

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

Finding the Odd Number Out 

The pattern involves adding consecutive odd numbers:

• 2 + 3 = 5
• 5 + 5 = 10
• 10 + 7 = 17
• 17 + 9 = 26
• 26 + 11 = 37
• 37 + 13 = 50

However, the next number should be 50 + 15 = 65, not 64.

Thus, 50 is the odd one out.
