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.
- AOption (a)
A1@ : B2# : C3
- BOption (b)
D4% : E5^ : F6&
- COption (c)
G7* : H8( : I9)

Correct answer
J10_ : K11@ : L12@
Why this answer is correct

| Options | Letter pattern | Number pattern | Symbol pattern |
|---|---|---|---|
| (1) | A → B → C | 1 → 2 → 3 | @, #, $ (All Unique) |
| (2) | D → E → F | 4 → 5 → 6 | %, ^, & (All Unique) |
| (3) | G → H → I | 7 → 8 → 9 | *, (, ) (All Unique) |
| (4) | J → K → L | 10 → 11 → 12 | _, @, @ (Repetitive) |
Option 4 is the different one because it breaks the symbol progression. While the letters (J, K, L) and numbers (10, 11, 12) follow the established pattern, the symbol "@" is repeated in the second and third groups (K11@ and L12@).
Hence, the correct answer is “Option 4”$.
