Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Answer: TUS is the odd one out.

Explanation: The other choices follow the same two-step letter pattern (considering their three-letter cores): the second letter is one after the first (+1), and the third letter is three before the second (-3).

  • DEB: D -> E is +1; E -> B is -3.

  • FGD: F -> G is +1; G -> D is -3.

  • PQN: P -> Q is +1; Q -> N is -3.

Check TUS: T -> U is +1 (first step matches) but U -> S is -2, not -3, so it does not follow the pattern and is the odd one out.
