In the following question, four letter-number pairs are given. The letter-number on the left side of (−) is related to the letter-number on the right side of (−) with some Logic/Rule/Relation. Three pairs are similar on the basis of same Logic/Rule/Relation. Select the odd one out from the given alternatives. (NOTE: Operations should be performed on the whole numbers, without breaking down the number into its constituent digits. E.g.13 - Operations on 13 such as adding /subtracting /multiplying etc. to 13 can be performed. Breaking down 13 into 1 and 3 and then performing mathematical operations on 1 and 3 is not allowed)
108CX − 216DB
Each pair has a number part and a two-letter part, so the rule must be checked separately on the numbers and on the letters.
The number rule: the right number is exactly double the left in every pair — \(108\times2=216\), \(132\times2=264\), \(244\times2=488\) and \(296\times2=592\). So the numbers are consistent across all four and cannot separate the odd one.
The letter rule must therefore be the deciding feature; read the shift on the first letter and on the second letter of each pair.
For DR→EU: D+1=E and R+3=U. For AH→BK: A+1=B and H+3=K. For PU→QX: P+1=Q and U+3=X. So three pairs follow first letter +1, second letter +3.
Now test the remaining pair CX→DB. The first letter is fine, C+1=D, but the second letter X should move +3 to A (X→Y→Z→A), whereas the pair shows B, which is a shift of +4.
So 108CX − 216DB is the only pair that breaks the +1, +3 letter rule that the other three share, even though its number doubling is correct.
Hence the odd one out is 108CX − 216DB.
