Math Problem Statement
Solution
The question asks to find the wrong term in the following series of numbers:
Let's examine the pattern or relationship between the numbers to find the incorrect one.
-
From 18 to 19:
-
From 19 to 38:
-
From 38 to 114:
-
From 114 to 460:
-
From 460 to 2301:
-
From 2301 to 13806:
It seems like all the terms follow a multiplying pattern except for 2301, which should have been 2300.
Thus, 2301 is the wrong term.
