The Correct Option is D

Solution and Explanation

Analyze the relationship between the letters of each pair: - (1) NTP → PGR Check positions: N → P (+2), T → G (-13), P → R (+2) - (2) RSB → THD R → T (+2), S → H (-11), B → D (+2) - (3) KGN → MTP K → M (+2), G → T (+13), N → P (+2) - (4) QDL → SWP Q → S (+2), D → W (-7), L → P (+4) Clearly, the first three options follow a pattern where the 1st and 3rd letters increase by +2, but the middle letter shows a large jump that doesn’t fit a simple rule. However, in option (4), the third letter increases by +4, breaking the pattern. So, Option (4) QDL : SWP is the odd one out.
