SSC CPO - 11 Nov 2022 - Shift 3 • Reasoning • Q178

Three of the following four-letter clusters are alike in a certain way and one is different.
 Pick the odd one out.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. BXC.

The logic used here is:

Opposite of 1st letter = 2nd letter

1st letter + 1 = 3rd letter

Option 1: BXC → B ⇔ Y ≠ X; B + 1 = C

Option 2: OLP → O ⇔ L; O + 1 = P

Option 3: TGU → T ⇔ G; T + 1 = U

Option 4: XCY → X ⇔ C; X + 1 = Y

Hence, BXC is the odd one out.
