Which pair does not belong to the following sequence? C3, E5, G7, I9, K14

1. C3
2. E5
3. I9
4. K14

Correct answer: K14

Solution

The letters follow the pattern C, E, G, I, K, increasing by 2 positions each time. The numbers should also increase by 2: 3, 5, 7, 9, 11. Since K is paired with 14 instead of 11, K14 does not belong.
