    Question

    Based on the English alphabetical order, three of the following four letter- clusters are alike in a certain way and thus form a group. Which letter-cluster does not belong to the group?

    (Note: The odd one out is not based on the number of consonants/vowels or their position in the letter cluster.)

    A.

    GMJ

    B.

    BHF

    C.

    KQN

    D.

    RXU

    Correct option is B

    Step 1: Identify the positions of the letters in each cluster

    • A (GMJ)
      G = 7, M = 13, J = 10
      Differences: M - G = 6, J - M = -3

    • B (BHF)
      B = 2, H = 8, F = 6
      Differences: H - B = 6, F - H = -2

    • C (KQN)
      K = 11, Q = 17, N = 14
      Differences: Q - K = 6, N - Q = -3

    • D (RXU)
      R = 18, X = 24, U = 21
      Differences: X - R = 6, U - X = -3

    Step 2: Compare patterns

    • ACD
      +6-3Clusters , , and have the same pattern:The differences between the letters are followed by .
    • B
      +6-2Cluster has a different pattern:The differences are followed by .

    Step 3: Identify the odd one out

    The odd one out is B (BHF) because its pattern deviates from the consistent +6, -3 pattern found in the other clusters.
