In each of the following questions, a group of three numbers/symbols is given in each option. Identify the group that does NOT follow the same pattern as the others.

1. Z1: Y2#: X3@
2. W4%: V5^: U6&
3. T7*: S8(: R9)
4. Q10: P11: O12

Correct answer: Q10: P11: O12

Solution

The first three options follow a clear pattern: letters decrease by 1, numbers increase by 1, and symbols progress in a consistent sequence. The last option does not fit the same symbol pattern and is structurally different. Hence, it is the odd one out.
