Based on the English alphabetical order, three of the following four letter cluster pairs are alike in a certain way and thus form a group. Which is the one that 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)
BL – TY
Use alphabet positions (A = 1, … , Z = 26) and compare the first letters of the two clusters and the second letters of the two clusters.
LV – CI: L(12) → C(3) is −9; V(22) → I(9) is −13 (same as +13).
RB – IO: R(18) → I(9) is −9; B(2) → O(15) is +13.
EO – VB: E(5) → V(22) is +17 (same as −9); O(15) → B(2) is −13 (same as +13).
BL – TY: B(2) → T(20) is +18 (same as −8); L(12) → Y(25) is +13.
In three pairs the first letter moves 9 places back and the second letter moves 13 places; only BL – TY breaks the first rule.
Hence, BL – TY.
