Question

Three of the following four letter-clusters are alike in a certain way and one is different. Select the odd one:

• A. JMSU
• B. IMPV
• C. YTSR
• D. AEKM

Hint:

When analyzing letter patterns, look for consistent differences in the position of letters in the alphabet.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

The pattern is based on the positions of the letters in the English alphabet. - JMSU: Letters are 2 steps apart (J to M, M to S, S to U). - IMPV: Letters are 2 steps apart (I to M, M to P, P to V). - YTSR: Letters are 1 step apart (Y to T, T to S, S to R). - AEKM: Letters are 4 steps apart (A to E, E to K, K to M). The odd one out is "AEKM" because the step difference is 4, unlike the others, which have consistent differences of 2 or 1.
Therefore, the correct answer is "AEKM."
