One term in the number series is wrong. Find the wrong term: 325, 259, 202, 160, 127, 105, 94.

A94

B127

C202 ✓ Correct

D259

Correct answer: (C) 202

Explanation

The wrong term is 202.

The terms should fall by 66, 55, 44, 33, 22, 11 in turn.

325 - 66 = 259, and 259 - 55 = 204, not 202.

Continuing, 204 - 44 = 160, 160 - 33 = 127, 127 - 22 = 105, 105 - 11 = 94.

So 202 breaks the pattern and should be 204.
