The correct Answer is:
To identify the wrong number in the series 10, 11, 24, 75, 303, 1525, 9156, we will analyze the pattern of the series step by step. ### Step 1: Analyze the pattern We will look for a pattern in the series. The first number is 10. ### Step 2: Calculate the next number From 10 to 11: - \(10 \times 1 + 1 = 11\) ### Step 3: Calculate the next number From 11 to 24: - \(11 \times 2 + 2 = 24\) ### Step 4: Calculate the next number From 24 to 75: - \(24 \times 3 + 3 = 75\) ### Step 5: Calculate the next number From 75 to 303: - \(75 \times 4 + 4 = 300 + 4 = 304\) ### Step 6: Identify the discrepancy We expected the next number after 75 to be 304, but the series lists it as 303. Therefore, 303 is the wrong number. ### Step 7: Continue checking the pattern From 303 to 1525: - \(304 \times 5 + 5 = 1520 + 5 = 1525\) (This is correct) From 1525 to 9156: - \(1525 \times 6 + 6 = 9150 + 6 = 9156\) (This is also correct) ### Conclusion The wrong number in the series is **303**. The correct number should be **304**. ---
