The pattern followed here is:⇒ 2

Logic: First number × 10 = Second number.

Let's check each option one by one.

Option 1) 6 - 60

⇒ 6 × 10 = 60 = 60 (Correct)

Option 2) 2 - 18

⇒ 2 × 10 = 20 ≠ 18 (Incorrect)

Option 3) 4 - 40

⇒4 × 10 = 40 = 40 (Correct)

Option 4) 8 - 80

⇒ 8 × 10 = 80 = 80 (Correct)

So, '2 - 18' does not follow the correct pattern. 

Hence, the correct answer is "2 - 18".
