Question

Which term is wrong in the following series- 6;26;36;66;106;156​

Answer 1

Answer:26

It should be

6,6+10=16,16+20=26,26+30=56,56+40=106,106+50=156

But there is 26 instead of 16

Answer 2

The wrong term is 26 (correct, 16).

Step-by-step explanation:

The given series :

6, 26, 36, 66, 106, 156​

To find, the wrong term = ?

The pattern follow:

+ 10, + 20, + 30, + 40, + 50, + 60, .....

6 + 10 = 16 ≠ 26, is wrong term

16 + 20 = 36,

36 + 30 = 66,

66 + 40 = 106 and

106 + 50 = 156

The wrong term = 26

Hence, the wrong term is 26 (correct, 16).
