Find odd man out: 34, 105, 424, 2123, 12756.

Option b: 2123. Solution: Let's establish the mathematical pattern linking consecutive terms starting with T1 = 34: - T2 = T1 x 3 + 3 = 34 x 3 + 3 = 102 + 3 = 105 - T3 = T2 x 4 + 4 = 105 x 4 + 4 = 420 + 4 = 424 - T4 = T3 x 5 + 5 = 424 x 5 + 5 = 2120 + 5 = 2125 (the series lists 2123, which is incorrect) - T5 = T4 x 6 + 6 = 2125 x 6 + 6 = 12750 + 6 = 12756 This pattern (Tn = T{n-1} x (n+1) + (n+1)) is perfectly consistent for all terms except 2123, which should be 2125. Therefore, 2123 is the odd man out. Hence, Option B is the correct answer.

Find odd man out: $34, 105, 424, 2123, 12756$.

The correct answer is Option b: $2123$. Let's establish the mathematical pattern linking consecutive terms starting with $T_1 = 34$: - $T_2 = T_1 \times 3 + 3 = 34 \times 3 + 3 = 102 + 3 = 105$ - $T_3 = T_2 \times 4 + 4 = 105 \times 4 + 4 = 420 + 4 = 424$ - $T_4 = T_3 \times 5 + 5 = 424 \times 5 + 5 = 2120 + 5 = 2125$ (the series lists $2123$, which is incorrect) - $T_5 = T_4 \times 6 + 6 = 2125 \times 6 + 6 = 12750 + 6 = 12756$ This pattern ($T_n = T_{n-1} \times (n+1) + (n+1)$) is perfectly consistent for all terms except $2123$, which should be $2125$. Therefore, $2123$ is the odd man out. Hence, **Option B** is the correct answer.

All Options:

A $\displaystyle 12756$
B $\displaystyle 2123$
C $\displaystyle 424$
D $\displaystyle 34$

Detailed Solution & Explanation

Let's establish the mathematical pattern linking consecutive terms starting with

\displaystyle T_1 = 34

:
-

\displaystyle T_2 = T_1 \times 3 + 3 = 34 \times 3 + 3 = 102 + 3 = 105

\displaystyle T_3 = T_2 \times 4 + 4 = 105 \times 4 + 4 = 420 + 4 = 424

\displaystyle T_4 = T_3 \times 5 + 5 = 424 \times 5 + 5 = 2120 + 5 = 2125

(the series lists

\displaystyle 2123

, which is incorrect)
-

\displaystyle T_5 = T_4 \times 6 + 6 = 2125 \times 6 + 6 = 12750 + 6 = 12756

This pattern (

\displaystyle T_n = T_{n-1} \times (n+1) + (n+1)

) is perfectly consistent for all terms except

\displaystyle 2123

, which should be

\displaystyle 2125

. Therefore,

\displaystyle 2123

is the odd man out.

Hence, **Option B** is the correct answer.
