Odd One Out (SSC MTS 2020 Tier – 1)

Total Questions: 2

1. Select the odd one. [S.S.C MTS 05/10/2021 (Afternoon)]

Correct Answer: (b) FJN
Solution:

The pattern followed here is :

{1st letter + 3 = 2nd letter} & {2nd letter + 5 = 3rd letter}

DGL → (D + 3 = G) & (G + 5 = L)
ADI → (A + 3 = D) & (D + 5 = I)
EHM → (E + 3 = H) & (H + 5 = M)
But,
FJN → (F + 3 ≠ J) & (J + 5 ≠ N)

Hence, FJN is the correct answer.

2. Pick the odd one out [S.S.C MTS 13/10/2021 (Morning)]

Correct Answer: (c) TPLR
Solution:

The pattern followed here is :

{1st letter - 4 = 2nd letter} & {3rd letter = Opposite of 2nd letter} & {3rd letter + 6 = 4th letter}

GCXD → (G - 4 = C), (C ↔ X) & (X + 6 = D)
KGTZ → (K - 4 = G), (G ↔ T) & (T + 6 = Z)

NJQW → (N - 4 = J), (J ↔ Q) & (Q + 6 = W)

But,

TPLR → (T - 4 = P), (P ↔ K ≠ L) & (L + 6 = R)

Hence, TPLR is the correct answer.
