SSC CHSL 2024 PYQ — Question 90

SSC CHSL - 01 July 2024 - Shift 3 • Reasoning • Q90

Three of the following four-letter clusters are alike in a certain way and thus form a group. Which letter cluster does NOT belong to that group?

(Note: The odd one out is not based on the number of consonants/vowels or their position in the letter cluster.)

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. EFHD.

The logic used here is:

1st letter + 1 = 2nd letter

2nd letter + 3 = 3rd letter

3rd letter - 5 = 4th letter

Option 1: VWZU

V + 1 = W, W + 3 = Z, Z - 5 = U

This follows the logic.

Option 2: EFHD

E + 1 = F, F + 3 = I, I - 5 = D

This does not follow the logic.

Hence, EFHD is the odd one out.
