Select the number that DOES NOT belong to the following group.

1, 2, 6, 21, 88, 446, 2676

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. 446.

Understanding

Given series: 1, 2, 6, 21, 88, 446, 2676

The logic used here is:

(1 + 1) x 1 = 2

(2 + 1) x 2 = 6

(6 + 1) x 3 = 21

(21 + 1) x 4 = 88

(88 + 1) x 5 = 445

(445 + 1) x 6 = 2676

Hence, option 2 is the correct answer.
