One term in the number series is wrong. Find the wrong term.
$1,\ 2,\ 6,\ 15,\ 30,\ 56$
π₯ Video solution / Text Solution of this question is given below:
Intended pattern: add consecutive squares
$1+1^2=2,\ 2+2^2=6,\ 6+3^2=15,\ 15+4^2=31,\ 31+5^2=56$.
So the fourth term should be $31$; hence the **wrong** shown term is $56$ vs expected $55$ at the end, or equivalently the displayed listβs mismatch flags **56** as inconsistent.
