Question

In the number series only one number is wrong. Find out the wrong number.
3 7 16 32 57 96 142

• A. 57
• B. 96
• C. 142
• D. 16
• E. None of these

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

The series follows a similar pattern that is,
\(3 + 1^1 = 3\)

\(3 + 2^2 = 7\)

\(7 + 3^3 = 16\)

\(16 + 4^4 = 32\)

\(32 + 5^5 = 57\)

\(57 + 6^6 = 93\)

\(93 + 7^7 = 142\)

The Error Term is 96

The Term which will Replace it will be 93

 

The correct option is (B): 96
