B
Correct answer
Explanation
92 is the wrong number. The pattern is: divide by 6 and add 12 repeatedly. 2880/6+12=480, 480/6+12=92, but 92/6+12=27.33 (not 24). The pattern requires 92 to be 80 (80/6+12=25.33, still not 24). The correct pattern seems to be: divide by 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 respectively: 2880/6+12=492 (not 480). The number 92 breaks whatever pattern is intended.
AI explanation
The series follows a pattern of dividing by successively smaller numbers: 2880÷6=480, 480÷5=96, 96÷4=24, 24÷3=8, 8÷2=4, 4÷1=4. The given series shows 92 instead of the expected 96, making 92 the number that breaks the pattern.
