This question was previously asked in
RRB NTPC 2015 CBT 1 Question Paper (29-Mar-2016) (Shift 1)
The correct answer is
RILNIGHE

To solve the logical reasoning question of finding the odd one out among the given jumbled letters, let's first rearrange the scrambled letters to form meaningful words.

  1. Rearrange LAFC:
    • When rearranged, LAFC becomes CALF.
  2. Rearrange UKCGIDLN:
    • When rearranged, UKCGIDLN becomes DUCKLING.
  3. Rearrange RILNIGHE:
    • When rearranged, RILNIGHE becomes HIRELING.
  4. Rearrange BCU:
    • When rearranged, BCU becomes CUB.

Upon examining the rearranged words:

  • CALF, DUCKLING, and CUB are all young or immature animals. Specifically:
  • CALF is a young cow or animal of related species.
  • DUCKLING is a young duck.
  • CUB is a young bear, lion, fox, or other carnivorous animals.
  • HIRELING, while a valid word, does not match the pattern, as it refers to a person who works solely for material reward, not a young animal.

Conclusion: The word HIRELING is the odd one out because it does not belong to the category of young animals like the other words.
