B Correct answer
Explanation

B (2020) is the wrong term. The pattern is multiplying by decreasing factors: 4.5, 4, 3.5, 3, 2.5. Verifying: 32 × 4.5 = 144, 144 × 4 = 576, 576 × 3.5 = 2016 (not 2020), 2016 × 3 = 6048, 6048 × 2.5 = 15120. Since 2020 ≠ 2016, it breaks the pattern and is the wrong term.
