Can anyone help with these ?

Whih is the odd one out, and what links the others ?

1 ) orange, lemon, lime, banana , olive

2 ) 8i , 4c, 8p, 12m, 10w

3 ) 1, 3, 5, 13, 14 ( Is there anything else apart from the obvious answer about odd and even numbers ?!!! )

Any help would be appreciated - thanks.

1 Banana? All the others have an E
1 banana? rest are colours
3 14? rest are prime numbers
Banana's a herb rest are fruits??
Banana's a herb the rest are fruits??
10w as the rest are measurements?
Hi Quinie- 1 is not a prime number either
1 Banana - you can get oil from the others - I think
I don't get Sibton's answer to 2. I have spent a lifetime campaigning against odd one out type of questions unless the answer is accompanied by the reason why. Banana seems the choice for 1 but for different reasons, each equally valid in my opinion (though I'm not sure about the oil bit)
I didn't get sibton's answer either, but it was a useful suggestion to get us thinking
For Mike, I may be wrong
8 inches, 4 cms, 8 perches? (questionable), 12 metres
10 watts electricity
Centimetres in cm though rather than c
It could be coloumbs though, p could be pence. I think inches is 'in' rather than i
If that is the case then it is exceedingly contrived. I've a feeling it's something much simpler but just can't see it.
If these are algebraic expressions you could argue that 10w is the odd one out as 4 is a factor of all the others. See what I mean about giving the reason why?
3) 3 ? the only number on the bottom half of a dartboard ? http://quizmasters.bi.../Gfx/Dartboard_05.jpg

(there are too few numbers to come to a definitive answer imo)
2) 10w - it's all about human teeth

8 incisors, 4 canines, 8 premolars, 12 molars
3 14 is divisible by itself, one,seven and two. The others are prime numbers
If it is teeth 10 w wisdom so would 13 be odd one out
?
(wisdom teeth is just the name given to the rearmost molars, so there are only 4 of them)
