SSC CHSL - 15th October 2020 - Shift 3 • Reasoning • Q100

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

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e CUZ.

Understanding

The logic used here is:

2nd letter = (1st letter positional value)2 

Option 1: BDH (B = 2, D = 4)

Option 2: CUZ (C = 3, U is not equal to 9). Hence, this is the odd one out.

Option 3: EYC (E = 5, Y = 25)

Option 4: DPT (D = 4, P = 16)

Hence, option 2 is the odd one out.
