Go through all the options and mark the one which does not belong to the group.
10, 13, 234, 681, 997
Answer & ExplanationAnswer: Option A
10⇒ 1+0 =1 or 1^2
13⇒ 1+3 = 4 or 2^2
234 ⇒ 2+3+4 = 9 or 3^2
681 ⇒ 6+8+1 = [15]
997 ⇒ 9+9+7 = 25 or 5^2
So the sum of the digits in all the numbers is a perfect square except for 681, hence that is odd.
