Directions to Solve

In this type of questions, one term in the number series is wrong. Find out the wrong term.


19.
56, 58, 62, 70, 84, 118, 182
58
62
84
118
Answer: Option
Explanation:

The correct pattern is + 2, + 4, + 8, + 16, + 32, + 64 i.e. + 2, + 22, + 23, + 24, + 25, + 26.

So, 84 is wrong and must be replaced by (70 + 16) i.e. 86.
