Find wrong number 54,43,34,26,22,19,18
- 22
- 26
- 18
- 34
Explanation
Let's try to find the consistent difference between numbers:
- 54 → 43 → difference = -11
- 43 → 34 → difference = -9
- 34 → 26 → difference = -8
- 26 → 22 → difference = -4
- 22 → 19 → difference = -3
- 19 → 18 → difference = -1
The differences are not follow a regular pattern.
Now assume correct pattern:
Try subtracting odd numbers in decreasing order:
- 54 - 11 = 43
- 43 - 9 = 34
- 34 - 7 = 27
- 27 - 5 = 22
- 22 - 3 = 19
- 19 - 1 = 18
So if the intended pattern was subtracting odd numbers in sequence (11, 9, 7, 5, 3, 1):
The correct sequence should be:
54, 43, 34, 27, 22, 19, 18
So the number 26 in the original sequence is wrong.
It should have been 27 instead of 26.
Correct wrong number: 26
Correct sequence: 54, 43, 34, 27, 22, 19, 18
