Solution 1: You need to use :has selector:

$('.outer:has(.inner)').addClass('newclass');

Solution 2: Or, find the inner element and add class to its parent element with class .outer:

$('.inner').closest('.outer').addClass('newclass');

you can use the parent function of jquery

https://jsfiddle.net/bj7k3j0q/

$(document).ready(function () {
    $('.inner').parent(".outer").addClass("newClass");
});

You can use .closest function. See below example :

$('.inner').closest('.outer').addClass('newclass');

Wherever you want to display output, its depend on your html structure and css definition. Then, the jquery selector will depend on that.
