Question 891655: Q. Find the wrong number in the series
8, 17, 37, 79, 165, 338
Answer by fcabanski(1391)   (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Each number is progressively 1, 3, 5, 7... more than twice the previous number.
8+8 = 16 + 1 = 17
17+17 = 34 + 3 = 37
37 + 37 = 74 + 5 = 79
79 + 79 = 158 + 7 = 165
165 + 165 = 330+ 9 = 339. The final number should be 339.
