Difficulty: Easy
Correct Answer: Litre
Explanation:
Introduction / Context:Measurement-classification items typically contrast unit dimensions (length, mass, volume, etc.). Recognizing dimensional categories is sufficient to isolate the outlier.
Given Data / Assumptions:
Concept / Approach:Group units by physical dimension. Three are length; one is volume.
Step-by-Step Solution:
1) Classify Mile, Centimetre, Yard → length.2) Litre → volume.3) Therefore, “Litre” is the odd unit.Verification / Alternative check:Dimensionally check conversions: length units convert into metres/feet; litre converts into cubic centimetres/cubic metres (volume), not into linear units.
Why Other Options Are Wrong:They share the same dimension—linear measure.
Common Pitfalls:Equating “small” units with different dimensions; units can be small (cm) and still be length.
Final Answer:Litre
