Identify the odd word from the group of words given below relating to 'tobacco'.

  • A.Addiction
  • B.Subtraction
  • C.Division
  • D.Equation

Answer: A

The odd word is Addiction.

Subtraction, division and equation are all terms of arithmetic and mathematics. Addiction stands apart: it is the dependence that tobacco causes, through nicotine, which makes it the word in the group that relates to tobacco.

The word also plays on 'addition', which would have fitted with the other three. Recognising the near-pun is the point of the question.
