The Correct Option is A

Solution and Explanation

Step 1: Analyze the pattern in the first letters: K(11), P(16), V(22), Z(26), E(5). Differences: +5, +6, +4, +5. Not consistent.
so now re-evaluate positions. K=11, P=16 (+5), V=22 (+6), Z=26 (+4), E=5 (wrap around, +5 after Z). The pattern should be +5, +6, +5, +6
But V to Z is +4.
Step 2: Check first letters again. If pattern is +5, +6, +5, +6: K(11)+5=P(16) correct.
P(16)+6=V(22) correct. V(22)+5= 27
Z(26). So V to Z is +4, which breaks the pattern. Then Z(26)+6=32 which wraps to E(5) So the wrong term is V 11 J. option (C).
Step 3: Therefore, the wrong term is V 11 J. Option (C) is correct.
