BDH

Correct Answer:

CUZ

Explanation:

1   2    3    4   5    6   7     8    9  10  11  12  13

 A   B   C    D   E    F   G    H    I    J    K    L   M

 ↓    ↓    ↓    ↓    ↓     ↓   ↓    ↓     ↓   ↓    ↓    ↓    ↓

 Z   Y    X   W   V    U   T    S    R   Q   P    O   N

26  25  24  23  22  21  20  19  18  17  16  15  14

THE LOGIC;

1) CUZ,

C x 3(positional value of C) → I not U; U+5 = Z

2) DPT,

D x 4(positional value of D) → P; P+4 = T

3) EYC,

E x 5(positional value of E) → Y; Y+4 = C

4) BDH,

B x 2(positional value of B) → D; D+4 = H

Thus, CUZ is the odd one.
