The correct Answer is:
To find the odd one out in the series: 3.7, 8.7, 23.7, 48.7, 84.7, 128.7, we will analyze the differences between the numbers. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Series**: The series given is 3.7, 8.7, 23.7, 48.7, 84.7, 128.7. 2. **Extract the Decimal Part**: Notice that all numbers have the same decimal part (0.7). We can focus on the integer parts: 3, 8, 23, 48, 84, 128. 3. **Calculate Differences**: - Difference between 8 and 3: \[ 8 - 3 = 5 \] - Difference between 23 and 8: \[ 23 - 8 = 15 \] - Difference between 48 and 23: \[ 48 - 23 = 25 \] - Difference between 84 and 48: \[ 84 - 48 = 36 \] - Difference between 128 and 84: \[ 128 - 84 = 44 \] 4. **List the Differences**: The differences we calculated are: - 5, 15, 25, 36, 44. 5. **Identify the Pattern**: The differences seem to follow a pattern: - The first difference (5) is \(5 \times 1\), - The second difference (15) is \(5 \times 3\), - The third difference (25) is \(5 \times 5\), - The fourth difference (36) is not fitting the pattern as it should be \(5 \times 7\) which equals 35. - The fifth difference (44) is not fitting the pattern as it should be \(5 \times 9\) which equals 45. 6. **Determine the Odd One Out**: - The difference between 48 and 84 should have been 35 (not 36). Thus, 84.7 is the odd one out in the series. 7. **Conclusion**: The wrong number in the series is 84.7. The correct number should be 83.7. ### Final Answer: The odd one out in the series is **84.7**.
