In each of these questions a number series is given. In each series only one number is wrong. Find out the wrong number.
18225, 6075, 2025, 675, 220, 75, 25
Correct Answer :
220
Solution :
The correct option is 220.
Let us analyze the pattern followed by the numbers in the given series from left to right:
Each successive number in the series is obtained by dividing the previous number by 3.
Following this rule, after 675, the next term should be 225 instead of 220.
Therefore, 220 is the wrong number in the series.
