Select the odd group of numbers. (NOTE: Operations should be performed on the whole numbers, without breaking down the numbers into its constituent digits. E.g. 13 - Operations on 13 such as adding/subtracting/multiplying etc. to 13 can be performed. Breaking down 13 into 1 and 3 and then performing mathematical operations on 1 and 3 is not allowed)

Answer 1

The pattern followed here is : (Square of 1st number + 6) = 2nd number

So,

\((20)^2\) + 6 = 406

400 + 6 = 406

406 = 406 (LHS = RHS)

\((14)^2\) + 6 = 200

196 + 6 = 200

202 ≠ 200 (LHS ≠ RHS)

\((10)^2\) + 6 = 106

100 + 6 = 106

106 = 106 (LHS = RHS)

\((12)^2\) + 6 = 150

144 + 6 = 150

150 = 150 (LHS = RHS)

Hence, "Option - (2)" is the correct answer.
