The Correct Option is B

Solution and Explanation

To determine which number does not belong in the series, we need to analyze the given pairs:

  • 3F
  • 6G
  • 11L
  • 18L

Next, let's find the pattern in both numbers and letters:

  • Numbers:Observe the difference between the numbers.
    • 6 - 3 = 3
    • 11 - 6 = 5
    • 18 - 11 = 7
    • 18 + 9 = 27
  • Letters:Consider the alphabetical order:
    • F is the 6th letter
    • G is the 7th letter
    • L is the 12th letter
    • L is repeated
      • From F (6th) to G (7th) is +1
      • From G (7th) to L (12th) is +5
      • The letter corresponding with 27 should be 12 (L) with a shift of 1, resulting in 13 (M)

Therefore, the number that does not logically fit based on the provided options is 25 with letter N as 14th letter, breaking the series pattern.

OptionReason
21 QDoes not follow the numerical sequence.
25 NDoes not belong due to disrupting the expected number pattern.
27 QComplete number aligns with derived series, but letter has a mismatch if considered logically.
27 PBest approximate next logical choice in series with common interpretation of given letter patterns but is misaligned originally.

This analysis ascertains that the choice with the letter 'N,' or 25 N, stands out as not belonging to the sequence logically compared to the others.
