Three of the following four words are alike in a certain way and one is different. Pick the odd word out.
AAddition
BSubtraction
CDivision
DGeometry

correct answer is: option d (Geometry)
Explanation: The words Addition, Subtraction, and Division are all arithmetic operations. Geometry, on the other hand, is a branch of mathematics dealing with shapes, sizes, relative positions of figures, and the properties of space. Therefore, Geometry is the odd one out as it's a broader field of mathematics rather than a specific arithmetic operation.

  • Option A: Addition is a basic arithmetic operation.
  • Option B: Subtraction is a basic arithmetic operation.
  • Option C: Division is a basic arithmetic operation.
  • Option D: Geometry is a branch of mathematics dealing with shapes and spatial relationships, not an arithmetic operation.
