Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. SPU. 

Option 1: PMS ⇒P - 3 = M, M + 6 = S

Option 2: URX ⇒ U - 3 = R, R + 6 = X

Option 3: JGM ⇒ J - 3 = G, G + 6 = M

Option 4: SPU ⇒ S - 3 = P, P + 6 = V ≠ U

All are follow the same logic except option 4.
