8 - 5 = 3 835.
7 - 4 = 3 734.
6 - 2 = 4 642.
7 - 1 = 6 751.
8 - 3 = 5 853.
9 - 1 = 8 981.
5 - 2 = 3 532.
In this number series 751 is odd because in other numbers the 1st digit is find out by adding 2nd and 3rd digit simultaneously, but in 751 it is not happening.
7 - 4 = 3 734.
6 - 2 = 4 642.
7 - 1 = 6 751.
8 - 3 = 5 853.
9 - 1 = 8 981.
5 - 2 = 3 532.
In this number series 751 is odd because in other numbers the 1st digit is find out by adding 2nd and 3rd digit simultaneously, but in 751 it is not happening.

I was thought the sum of last two digit number is equal to the first digit number.
All the following are satisfied the conditions except 751. So I was thought "751" is wrong.
Like:
8 = 5+3
7 = 4+3
9 = 8+1
Can we use this method. If anyone knows tell me.

8-5=3 of 835.
7-4=3 of 734.
6-2=4 of 642.
7-1 = 6 of 751 This one is wrong, because we got the result 6 instead of 5. (subtract first and last digit will get centerone as a result).
8-3=5 of 853.
9-1=8 of 981.
5-2=3 of 532.
7-4=3 of 734.
6-2=4 of 642.
7-1 = 6 of 751 This one is wrong, because we got the result 6 instead of 5. (subtract first and last digit will get centerone as a result).
8-3=5 of 853.
9-1=8 of 981.
5-2=3 of 532.

This one is more easy
3+5=8 of 835
3+4=7 of 734
4+2=6 of 642
5+1=6 of 751 This is wrong because we got the result of addition as 6 instead of 7.
5+3=8 of 853
8+1=9 of 981
3+2=5 of 532
3+5=8 of 835
3+4=7 of 734
4+2=6 of 642
5+1=6 of 751 This is wrong because we got the result of addition as 6 instead of 7.
5+3=8 of 853
8+1=9 of 981
3+2=5 of 532

1st digit = 2nd digit + 3rd digit.
3rd digit = 1st digit - 2nd digit.
3rd digit = 1st digit - 2nd digit.
