Choose the odd one:

A2,4,8

B3,9,27

C5,25,125

D4,16,36

Answer:

D. 4,16,36

Read Explanation:

Check the pattern in each group:

  • 2,4,8(21,22,23)2, 4, 8 → (2^1, 2^2, 2^3)

  • 3,9,27(31,32,33)3, 9, 27 → (3^1, 3^2, 3^3)

  • 5,25,125(51,52,53)5, 25, 125 → (5^1, 5^2, 5^3)

  • 4,16,364, 16, 36 → should be (41,42,43=4,16,64)(4^1, 4^2, 4^3 = 4,16,64), but 36 is incorrect

Therefore, the odd one is:

4, 16, 36
