    Explanation

    In the following number series the pattern we observe is: Any number = 3 × (previous number) – 13 For example: 11 = (3 × 8) – 13 128 = (3 × 47) – 13 371 = (3 × 128) – 13 1100 = (3 × 371) – 13 But, for 17 we can observe: 17 ≠ (11 × 3) – 13 & 47 ≠ (17 × 3) – 13 ∴ 17 is the wrong number.
