Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Key idea: In three pairs, each corresponding letter pair adds to 25 by alphabet position.

  • IKE - PNT: 9+16=25, 11+14=25, 5+20=25.

  • GTL - REM and ROQ - GJH follow the same pattern.

  • FMS - VOI gives 6+22=28, 13+15=28, 19+9=28, so it is different.

Answer: Option 1 is the odd one out.
