As per my point of view, the answer is 9.
Because,
2 * 2 = 4,
2 * 3 = 6,
2 * 4 = 8,
2 * 5 = 10, instead of 9 here 10 came so my answer is 9. Am I right?

It's about sequence as +2,+2,+1,+1,+2,+2,...So on
4+2=6
6+2=8
8+1=9
9+1=10
10+2=12......And so on
Hence there is no place for 11. So it is the odd one.
4+2=6

I think 4 is divisible by 2.
6/3.
8/2.
9/3.
10/2.
11 is not divisible by 3.
12/2.
So 11 is odd man.
6/3.
8/2.
9/3.
10/2.
11 is not divisible by 3.
12/2.
So 11 is odd man.
