Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Answer: CGP is the odd one out.
Key idea: Convert each letter to its position in the alphabet and add the three numbers.
EGK: E(5) + G(7) + K(11) = 23 → odd
BEN: B(2) + E(5) + N(14) = 21 → odd
CGP: C(3) + G(7) + P(16) = 26 → even (only even total)
AEU: A(1) + E(5) + U(21) = 27 → odd
Because CGP is the only string whose letter-position sum is even while the others are odd, CGP is the odd one out.
