The pattern of the given number series is as:

⇒ 1788

⇒ (1788/2) – 2 = 894 – 2 = 892

⇒ (892/2) – 2 = 446 – 2 = 444

⇒ (444/2) – 2 = 222 – 2 = 220

⇒ (220/2) – 2 = 110 – 2 = 108

⇒ (108/2) – 2 = 54 – 2 = 52

⇒ (52/2) – 2 = 26 – 2 = 24

Hence, the wrong term of the given number series is 112. The correct term is 108.

24*2+4=52

52*2+4=108

108*2+4=220

220*2+4=444

444*2+4=892

892*2+4=1788

so,in that series 112 is a wrong term.
