Identifying the Odd Group
To determine which group of letters is different among the five options, we need to analyze the patterns in the groups.
Analysis of Each Group
- Group a: EJ
- E (5th letter) → J (10th letter)
- The difference is +5.
- Group b: IM
- I (9th letter) → M (13th letter)
- The difference is +4.
- Group c: KQ
- K (11th letter) → Q (17th letter)
- The difference is +6.
- Group d: LT
- L (12th letter) → T (20th letter)
- The difference is +8.
- Group e: GJ
- G (7th letter) → J (10th letter)
- The difference is +3.
Finding the Pattern
By examining the differences between the letters in each group, we see:
- Groups a, b, d, and e have differences that are incremental (+3, +4, +5, +8), while the difference in group c is +6, which does not fit the pattern of the others.
Conclusion
The odd group out is option c: KQ, as it has a difference that does not align with the incremental pattern observed in the other groups. The other groups maintain a steady pattern of increasing letter differences, while KQ deviates from that.
Therefore, the correct answer is option 'C'.
