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 that group?
(Note: The odd one out is not based on the number of consonants/vowels or their position in the letter-cluster.)
-
A.
CFLP
-
B.
RUAF
-
C.
TWCG
-
D.
HKQU
Correct Answer:
B. RUAF
Explanation:
The relationship is determined by shifting each letter backward in the alphabet by a specific number of positions.
In the first pair (SKIB to OGNG):
S - 4 = O
K + 4 = O (Wait, let's re-examine the pattern)
Looking at the logic:
S (19) - 4 = O (15)
K (11) - 4 = G (7)
I (9) + 5 = N (14)
B (2) + 5 = G (7)
Pattern: -4, -4, +5, +5
Applying this to CUCV to YQHA:
C (3/29) - 4 = Y (25)
U (21) - 4 = Q (17)
C (3) + 5 = H (8)
V (22) + 5 = A (1/27)
Pattern: -4, -4, +5, +5
Applying the same logic to QIRK:
Q (17) - 4 = M
I (9) - 4 = E
R (18) + 5 = W
K (11) + 5 = P
