Directions: In the following number series only one number is wrong. Find out the wrong number. 16 17 32 99 392 1960 11784

The series follows a pattern where each term is multiplied by an increasing integer and then has one added to it. The logic is 16 * 1 + 1 = 17, 17 * 2 - 2 = 32, 32 * 3 + 3 = 99, and 99 * 4 - 4 = 392. Continuing this, the next term should be 392 * 5 + 5 = 1965, so the number 1960 is incorrect. The result is 1960.
