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.

Here 11 is only the prime number in the numbers given above.
All other numbers 4, 6, 8, 10, 12 are divisible by 2, and number nine is divisible by 3 so these are not the prime numbers.
Hence, "11" is the odd one here.
