Four letter-clusters have been given, out of which three are alike in some manner and one is different. Select the letter-cluster that is different.

  1. A
    TQO
  2. B
    IGE
  3. C
    MKI
  4. D
    ECA

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

Let's look at the positional difference between letters in each option:Option A: TQOT (20) - 3 = Q (17)Q (17) - 2 = O (15)Pattern: -3, -2Option B: IGEI (9) - 2 = G (7)G (7) - 2 = E (5)Pattern: -2, -2Option C: MKIM (13) - 2 = K (11)K (11) - 2 = I (9)Pattern: -2, -2Option D: ECAE (5) - 2 = C (3)C (3) - 2 = A (1)Pattern: -2, -2Options B, C, and D follow a uniform pattern of subtracting 2 between consecutive letters, whereas Option A follows a different pattern (-3, -2). Therefore, TQO is the odd one out.
