Solution

The odd term in the series is UFI.

Here's why:

  1. Look at the first letter in each term: C, F, J, O, U. These letters are increasing by a constant difference of 3 in the English alphabet (C to F is +3, F to J is +4, J to O is +5, O to U is +6).

  2. Now look at the second letter in each term: M, P, T, Y, F. These letters are also increasing by a constant difference of 3 (M to P is +3, P to T is +4, T to Y is +5, but Y to F is not +6).

  3. Finally, look at the third letter in each term: Q, T, X, C, I. These letters are increasing by a constant difference of 3 (Q to T is +3, T to X is +4, X to C is +5, but C to I is not +6).

So, the term UFI does not follow the pattern established by the other terms in the series.
