Here divisible by 3 trick is not working because 572, 427 & 671 are not divisible by 3.
TRICK 1: all digit divisible by 11 except 427,
TRICK 2: middle digit is the sum of other 2,
TRICK 3: all numbers , digit sum is even except 427 = 4+2+7 =13,
TRICK 1: all digit divisible by 11 except 427,
TRICK 2: middle digit is the sum of other 2,
TRICK 3: all numbers , digit sum is even except 427 = 4+2+7 =13,

The options A,C, D are the even numbers because option
A) 396 3+9+6=18
C) 671 6+7+1=14
D) 264 2+6+4=12.
The remaining is option B)427 4+2+7=13 that odd number.
So the answer is B.
A) 396 3+9+6=18
C) 671 6+7+1=14
D) 264 2+6+4=12.
The remaining is option B)427 4+2+7=13 that odd number.
So the answer is B.

396 (9-3=6) the middle one minus first one we get the last one. The same procedure is done in all numbers but where as in 427 (2-4=-2) we get negative so the answer is 427.

(3+9+6) = 18 Even.
(4+6+2) = 12 Even.
(5+7+2) = 14 Even.
(4+2+7) = 13 * Odd *
(6+7+1) = 14 Even.
(2+6+4) = 12 Even.
So,, option B 427 is the correct option.
(4+6+2) = 12 Even.
(5+7+2) = 14 Even.
(4+2+7) = 13 * Odd *
(6+7+1) = 14 Even.
(2+6+4) = 12 Even.
So,, option B 427 is the correct option.

Answer is B. Because 396, 3+9+6=18 671, 6+7+1=14 427, 4+2+7=13 264, 2+6+4=12 the sum of numbers are even except 427 its sum is 13. Which is odd then answer is?

The number in the middle or ten's place is the sum of the other two digits.
572 = 5+2 = 7.
462 = 4+2 = 6 so on..
But 427 is not applicable. So it is odd.
572 = 5+2 = 7.
462 = 4+2 = 6 so on..
But 427 is not applicable. So it is odd.

May be @Swetha and @Gopal is right. But @Ashish's answer is not perfect. Because 427 is not divisible by 2. I can't accept the answer given by the internet.

396 = 3+9+6=18.
427 = 4+3+7=14.
671 = 6+7+1=14.
427 = 4+2+7=13.
In the above options427 is give odd number by adding individual numbers so it is correct.
427 = 4+3+7=14.

396 = 3 + 9 + 6 = 18.
427 = 4 + 2 + 7 = 13.
671 = 6 + 7 + 1 = 14.
264 = 2 + 6 + 4 = 12.
In the above 4 options only 427 is odd number so 427 is correct.
427 = 4 + 2 + 7 = 13.
671 = 6 + 7 + 1 = 14.
264 = 2 + 6 + 4 = 12.
In the above 4 options only 427 is odd number so 427 is correct.

All except 427 are divisible by 11.
396/11=36 671/11=61.
462/11=42. 264/11=24.
572/11=52.
But 427 is not divisible by 11.
So, the answer is opt. (b).
396/11=36 671/11=61.
462/11=42. 264/11=24.
572/11=52.
But 427 is not divisible by 11.
So, the answer is opt. (b).
