Which ones are correct?

1. out the concern
2. out the consideration

3. out of the concern
4. out of the consideration

5. out of concern
6. out of consideration

I think # 5 & 6 are correct.
However, one teacher said 1, 2, 3 & 4 are all correct because they are all same meaning.

What do you think?
Please give me your advice. Big Smile [:D]

1 and 2 are definitely not correct.

3 and 4 are possible but only in limited circumstances. In fact, I'd struggle to think of an example where these could be used.

5 and 6 are the only really correct options.
