Question

Find the odd one out of given combinations :

• A. ABDF
• B. GHJM
• C. NOQS
• D. TUWY

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

To solve this problem, we need to identify the odd one out from the given letter combinations: ABDF, GHJM, NOQS, TUWY. We will analyze the pattern of each group of letters to find the irregular one.

1. Pattern Analysis:
   • ABDF: In this combination, the sequence is A (1), B (2), D (4), F (6). The pattern shows consecutive first two letters, and then skipping one letter thereafter: +1, +2, +2.
   • GHJM: Here, the sequence is G (7), H (8), J (10), M (13). The pattern: +1, +2, +3.
   • NOQS: The sequence is N (14), O (15), Q (17), S (19). The pattern is +1, +2, +2, which follows the same rule as ABDF.
   • TUWY: This one is T (20), U (21), W (23), Y (25). The pattern is +1, +2, +2, again following the same rule as ABDF and NOQS.
2. Identify the Odd One Out:
   • Comparing these patterns, ABDF, NOQS, and TUWY have a similar increment pattern of +1, +2, +2, which shows they follow the same rule of a consistent pattern.
   • GHJM has a different pattern (+1, +2, +3) compared to the others.
3. Conclusion:
   • Therefore, GHJM is the odd one out as it does not follow the same letter increment pattern as the other combinations.
