In each of the questions below, a number series has been given followed by five alternatives. One term of the given number series is wrong. Find out the wrong term and spot a number from the alternatives which will replace the wrong term of the series.
7, 14, 56, 168, 336, 1344, 2688, 8064
A careful scrutiny of the given series reveals that second term is 2 times the first, the third term is 4 times the second and fourth term is 3 times the third. The same pattern is being followed by the remaining terms of the series. Therefore, 2688 should be replaced by 4032. Hence, alternative (c) is the correct alternative.
