Correct Answer: HKNQ
Solution :
Let's check the options –
First option:
PTXB; P + 4 = T; T + 4 = X; X + 4 = B
Second option:
MQUY; M + 4 = Q; Q + 4 = U; U + 4 = Y
Third option:
GKOS; G + 4 = K; K + 4 = O; O + 4 = S
Fourth option:
HKNQ; H + 3 = K; K + 3 = N; N + 3 = Q
So, the fourth option is different from the other three options as the difference between the place values of the letters is 3 instead of 4. Hence, the fourth option is correct.
