Answer:

  • C is the odd one.

Explanation:

Let's verify each option.

Option A

  • 44/8 = 40/8 + 4/8 = 5 1/2 = 5 + 0.5 = 5.5

Option B

  • 5 1/2 = 5 + 0.5 = 5.5

Option C

  • 5 1/5 = 5 + 0.2 = 5.2

Option D

  • 5.500 = 5.5

Looking at the options, we can see that the result of Option A, B, and D are same.

This means that the odd one is Option C.
