    Question

    Based on the English alphabetical order, three of the following four letter-cluster pairs are alike in a certain way and thus form a group. Which is the letter-cluster pair that DOES NOT belong to that group?
    (Note: The odd one out is not based on the number of consonants/vowels or their position in the letter-cluster.)​

    A.

    LK - KJ

    B.

    HI - CD

    C.

    QR - LM

    D.

    PQ - KL

    Correct option is A

    Logic: Both letters decrease by 5.
    Option A: LK → KJ
    L → K => –1
    K → J => –1
    Option B: HI → CD
    H → C => –5
    I → D => –5
    Option C: QR → LM
    Q → L => –5
    R → M => –5
    Option D: PQ → KL
    P → K => –5

    Q → L => –5

    Odd One Out:
    Only Option A has a different pattern (–1, –1), while all others have –5, –5.

    Thus, correct option is (a).
