Question

In each of the following word-number pairs, the number represents the sum of the alphabetical positions of the letters in the word (A = 1, B = 2 ,..., z = 26 . Four of the pairs follow this rule exactly. One does not. Identify the odd one out.
STONE: 73
GLASS: 58
BRICK: 44
WALL: 48
CEMENT: 60

A.

BRICK: 44

B.

GLASS: 58

C.

WALL: 48

D.

STONE: 73

Correct option is A

Given
STONE: 73
GLASS: 58
BRICK: 43
WALL: 48
CEMENT: 60 ​​
Logic: Sum of place value of letters = Number
For, STONE: 73
19 + 20 + 15 + 14 + 5 = 73
73 = 73
For, GLASS : 58
7 + 12 + 1 + 19 + 19 = 58
58 = 58
For, BRICK : 44
2 + 18 + 9 + 3 + 11 = 43
43 \neq​ 44​
For, WALL - 48
23 + 1 +12 + 12 = 48
48 = 48
For, CEMENT - 60
3 + 5 + 13 + 5 + 14 + 20 = 60
60 = 60
So, option (a) is odd one out. Because BRICK = 43 \neq 44​
Thus, correct option is (a).
