Explanation

All numbers except 427 are divisible by 11: 396/11=36, 462/11=42, 572/11=52, 671/11=61, 264/11=24. 427÷11=38.82 (not integer). 427 is the odd one out due to divisibility.

AI explanation

To find the odd one out in the given sequence, we need to identify the pattern or rule that is followed by the numbers in the sequence.

Let's go through each option to understand why it is correct or incorrect:

Option A) 396 - This option is incorrect because it appears twice in the given sequence.

Option B) 427 - This option is correct because it is the only number in the sequence that is not divisible by 11.

Option C) 671 - This option is incorrect because it appears in the sequence and follows the pattern of increasing the number by 100.

Option D) 264 - This option is incorrect because it appears in the sequence and follows the pattern of decreasing the number by 100.

The correct answer is B) 427. This option is correct because it is the only number in the sequence that is not divisible by 11.
