Question

Identify the odd one out from the following groups of letters:

(a) RUW

(b) PSU

(c) JLN

(d) MPR

(e) FIK

Accepted Answer

**Solution:**

1. Let's analyze the pattern in each group of letters by looking at the positions of the letters in the English alphabet.

2. For each group, calculate the difference between consecutive letters:

- (a) RUW: R(18), U(21), W(23)
  - U - R = 21 - 18 = 3
  - W - U = 23 - 21 = 2

- (b) PSU: P(16), S(19), U(21)
  - S - P = 19 - 16 = 3
  - U - S = 21 - 19 = 2

- (c) JLN: J(10), L(12), N(14)
  - L - J = 12 - 10 = 2
  - N - L = 14 - 12 = 2

- (d) MPR: M(13), P(16), R(18)
  - P - M = 16 - 13 = 3
  - R - P = 18 - 16 = 2

- (e) FIK: F(6), I(9), K(11)
  - I - F = 9 - 6 = 3
  - K - I = 11 - 9 = 2

3. Except for option (c), all groups have the pattern of differences as 3 and then 2.

4. Option (c) has differences of 2 and then 2, which makes it the odd one out.

**Answer:** (c) JLN
