Step-by-step solution

To solve this problem, let's look at the intrinsic properties of each number:

  • Number 6 6 : Single digit, so there's no digit relationship to analyze.
  • Number 16 16 : Sum of digits is 1+6=7 1 + 6 = 7 .
  • Number 86 86 : Sum of digits is 8+6=14 8 + 6 = 14 .
  • Number 56 56 : Sum of digits is 5+6=11 5 + 6 = 11 .
  • Number 64 64 : Sum of digits is 6+4=10 6 + 4 = 10 .

On examining these numbers further for a pattern, one might think about considering a multiplication operation:

  • Number 16 16 : Product of digits is 1×6=6 1 \times 6 = 6 .
  • Number 86 86 : Product of digits is 8×6=48 8 \times 6 = 48 .
  • Number 56 56 : Product of digits is 5×6=30 5 \times 6 = 30 .
  • Number 64 64 : Product of digits is 6×4=24 6 \times 4 = 24 .

Evaluating these products and observing, an interesting quirk for some numbers: If each tens digit aligns with or relates to a another manner (e.g.,which when digits are concatenated, appear to flow toward a pattern observed in mathematical bases), we find each number ends inconsistently.

Ultimately recognizing a number contrary to others, the structural count of being a multiple, managed by intrinsic value: 64 64 which relationally forms title of other sequences. Thus, when breaking numerical properties, 64 64 emerges asynchronously as the odd one out.

Therefore, the number that is the odd one out is 64 64 .
