चिन्हे-अक्षरे-अंक यांची एक शृंखला दिलेली आहे. 2⊗S 9 8 * P T £ 5 R = > W Y # Q 6 @ f V 4 k N⊕G 3$D या शृंखलेवर आधारित खालील पाच समूहांपैकी चार समूह विशिष्ट प्रकारे समान असून त्यांचा एक गट बनतो. या गटात न बसणाऱ्या समूहाचा पर्याय निवडा. A series with symbols-letters-numbers is given. 2⊗S 9 8 * P T £ 5 R = > W Y # Q 6 @ f V 4 k N⊕G 3$D The four groups out of following five groups, derived from the given series are same in some way and form a group. One does not fit in the group. Select the alternative of the group which does not fit in the group.

(a)2⊗S

(b)9 * P
