SSC CHSL - 26 Nov 2025 - Shift 1 • Reasoning • Q37

Find out the wrong number in the following series.
998, 727, 510, 351, 214, 123, 62

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The pattern is consistently n3 - 2

103 - 2 = 998

93 - 2 = 727

83 - 2 = 510

73 - 2 = 341 (The series has 351)

63 - 2 = 214

53 - 2 = 123

43 - 2 = 62

The wrong number in your sequence is 351. It should have been 341.
