A: 1584-1834
B: 2476-2726
C: 3738-3988
D: 4735-4965

The answer is: D

Explanation

Let's analyze the given number pairs to find the odd one out:

  1. Check the pattern in each pair
    • 1584 → 1834 (Increase by 250)
    • 2476 → 2726 (Increase by 250)
    • 3738 → 3988 (Increase by 250)
    • 4735 → 4965 (Increase by 230)
  2. Identify the odd pair
    • The first three pairs follow the pattern (+250).
    • The last pair (4735 → 4965) increases by 230, which breaks the pattern.

Correct Answer:

D: 4735-4965 (It does not follow the +250 pattern)
