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

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. ZCGLS

The logic used here is: 1st letter + 3 = 2nd letter, 2nd letter + 4 = 3rd letter, 3rd letter + 5 = 4th letter, 4th letter + 6 = 5th letter

1: FIMRX → F + 3 = I, I + 4 = M, M + 5 = R, R + 6 = X

2: NQUZF → N + 3 = Q, Q + 4 = U, U + 5 = Z, Z + 6 = F

3: LOSXD → L + 3 = O, O + 4 = S, S + 5 = X, X + 6 = D

4: ZCGLS → Z + 3 = C, C + 4 = G, G + 5 = L, L + 6 = R
