Find the wrong number in the given series: 2,3,12,37,86,166,288..

Answer / chiranjeevi

sequence is 2,3,12,37,86,166,288
3-2=1
12-3=9
37-12=25
86-37=49
166-86=80(this must be 81->167-86=81)
so wrong number in the sequence is 166

difference between two sucessive numbers sequence would be
1,9,25,49,81,121(square of 1,3,5,7,9,11)
