Question

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

The correct answer is

DGKL

To find the odd one out, we convert letters to their numerical positions (A=1, B=2, ..., Z=26).

Option 1: GKRV
G=7, K=11, R=18, V=22 | Differences: 4, 7, 4 | Pattern: 7+22 = 11+18 (29)
Option 2: BFMQ
B=2, F=6, M=13, Q=17 | Differences: 4, 7, 4 | Pattern: 2+17 = 6+13 (19)
Option 3: EHPS
E=5, H=8, P=16, S=19 | Differences: 3, 8, 3 | Pattern: 5+19 = 8+16 (24)
Option 4: DGKL
D=4, G=7, K=11, L=12 | Differences: 3, 4, 1 | Pattern: 4+12 ≠ 7+11 (16 ≠ 18)
Conclusion: In Options 1, 2, and 3, the first and last gaps are identical, and the sum of outer letters equals the sum of inner letters. Option 4 (DGKL) is the odd one out.
