3, 5, 8, 13, 24, 39, 72 FIND THE WRONG NUMBER..

Answer / karthikeyan

The wrong Answer is 39.
Bcoz
5-3=2 2 is a prime number
8-5=3 3 is a prime number
13-8=5 5 is a prime number
24-13=11 11 is a prime number
39-24=15 15 is not a prime number

So after 11 the next prime number is 17. If we are add 24
with 17 we will get 41. Then we sunstract 72-41=31 is the
prime number.
