Find out the wrong number in the series. 2880, 480, 92, 24, 8, 4, 4?
Explanation
Let's examine the pattern of the given series: 2880, 480, 92, 24, 8, 4, 4.
Start by checking the relationship between consecutive numbers:
- 2880 ÷ 6 = 480
- 480 ÷ 5 = 96 (but the next number is 92, so this is where the error occurs)
- 92 ÷ 4 = 24
- 24 ÷ 3 = 8
- 8 ÷ 2 = 4
- 4 ÷ 1 = 4
The wrong number is 92.
It should be 96 for the series to follow a decreasing division pattern.
