The answer should be 85 I think because all others are multiples of 3.

All numbers/15 is an in integer excepr 85. So 85 must also be considered an answer.
105/15 = 7,
85/15 = 5.6,
60/15 = 4,
30/15 = 2,
0/15 = 0,
-45/15 = -3,
-90/16 = -9.
Find odd one out 105, 85, 60, 30, 0, -45, -90.
105/15 = 7,
85/15 = 5.6,
60/15 = 4,
30/15 = 2,
0/15 = 0,
-45/15 = -3,
-90/16 = -9.
Find odd one out 105, 85, 60, 30, 0, -45, -90.

85 is also a probable answer to this question.
Because each of the given numbers in the series except 85 is divisible by 3.

105-85 = 20.
85-60 = 25.
60-30 = 30.
30-0 = 30.
0-(-45 )= 45.
-45-(-90) = 45.
If we replace 0 by -5 we get sequence such as 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45.
85-60 = 25.
60-30 = 30.
30-0 = 30.
0-(-45 )= 45.
-45-(-90) = 45.
If we replace 0 by -5 we get sequence such as 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45.

I think 85 is also a correct answer because except 85 all are divisible by 3.
