This document provides information about odd man out/classification questions that are common in competitive exams. It explains that in these types of questions, a group is given where all items share a common trait except one odd item out. Three main types are described - number classification where numbers follow a pattern, word classification where words are in a category, and alphabet classification where letters follow a pattern. Examples of each type are given to illustrate finding the odd item out. The rest of the document consists of practice questions in these three formats to identify the odd item in each group.

are frequently appears in different competitive examinations. Classification means to assort the items of a given group on the basis of a certain common quality they possess and then trace the different one or odd man out. In the problems based on classification a group of letters (alphabets) or words or Numbers will be given. All the terms except one are classified under single head (under the same pattern). The word which is not under this pattern can be the odd one among all. Therefore this will be the required answer. Questions on classification can be asked in many forms. Some of them are given below 1. Number classification In this type a group of numbers will be given in which all are under a single head [follow the same pattern] except one number. That number can be traced out as odd one. In the problem, the numbers may be even, odd, prime, composite, rational, squares, cubes, binary digits and etc. Sometimes numbers will be given by mixing them with some alphabets. Ex: Find the odd one among the following 1) 7 2) 5 3) 17 4) 15 Sol: In the given numbers all are primes except 15 Ex: Find the odd one among the following 1) 144 2) 125 3) 196 4) 225 Sol: In the given numbers all are perfect squares except 125 2. Word classification In this type, a group of words will be given based on parts of speech, capitals of countries or states, places, professions and etc. student need to trace the different one out Ex: Find the odd among the following 1) Zebra 2) Lion 3) Tiger 4) Horse 5) Giraffe Sol: Here all the animals except horse are wild animals, while horse can be domesticated Ex: Find the odd among the following 1) House 2) Cottage 3) School 4) Hut Sol: In the given words all are the places to dwell except school 3. Alphabet classification In this type a group of jumbled letters consists of one or more letters will be given. All the items except one followed the same pattern. Student need to trace the odd item out to get the answer. Ex: Find the odd among the following. 1) AB 2) KL 3) MN 4) OQ Sol: In first three items letters in the pairs are consecutive, but in 4 th item alternate letters are given therefore answer is 4. Ex: Find the odd one among the following. 1) GE 2) MK 3) WU 4) QN Sol: First 3 options contain a pair of letters which are alternate in the reverse order. In fourth option letters are in reverse order but they are not alternates. Therefore answer is 4.
