Question : Directions: Four letter clusters have been given, out of which three are alike in some manner and one is different. Select the odd letter cluster.
Option 1: GCKD
Option 2: UQYR
Option 3: XOTP
Option 4: NJRK
Correct Answer: XOTP
Solution :
Let's check each option –
First option:
GCKD; G – 3 = D; C + 8 = K; The difference between the first and the last letter is equal to 3 and the difference between the middle letters is equal to 8.
Second option:
UQYR; U – 3 = R; Q + 8 = Y; The difference between the first and the last letter is equal to 3 and the difference between the middle letters is equal to 8.
Third option:
XOTP; X – 8 = P; O + 5 = T; The difference between the first and the last letter is equal to 8 and the difference between the middle letters is equal to 5.
Fourth option:
NJRK; N – 3 = K; J + 8 = R; The difference between the first and the last letter is equal to 3 and the difference between the middle letters is equal to 8.
The third option is different from the other three options because the difference in the position value of the letters is 8 and 5 instead of 3 and 8. Hence, the third option is correct.
