  1. In the following series, one of the terms given is wrong. Find that term and mark that as your answer.
    102, 101, 98, 93, 86, 74, 66, 53
    1. 101
    2. 66
    3. 74
    4. 93
    Answer: Option C
    102 - 1 = 101
    101 - 3 = 98
    98 - 5 = 93
    93 - 7 = 86
    86 - 9 =77
    77 - 11 = 66
    66 - 13 = 53
    Therefore, 77 is the correct number which should replace the wrong number 74. So option C
