The error is in the sentence, not in the number sequence. The question implies that the sequence is impossible. However, that sequence is quite possible, as there is no error in it. Therefore, the error is in the sentence - the word impossible. There is nothing wrong with the sequence. -- Actually, there is a lot more to this than you might think... Error 1: "Find the error" should end with a period (full-stop), the first error. Error 2: The most obvious one is the missing apostrophe between the "t" and the "s" in the word "its" in the sentence "find the errors, its impossible" This is the only one you are expected to find. Error 3: "Since "it's impossible" is a sentence, "it's" should have the 'i' capitalized. Error 4: It is clearly not impossible to find the error - because I just found it in about 2 seconds and without sending the email on. Also the email itself says 20% of UCDS students could find the error (as 80% could not) - therefore it is very clearly not impossible. So the sentence is incorrect - that is the fourth error. Error 5: The fifth error is it says "find the error" implying there is only one error - when as you can see there is more than one. It should say "find the errors". Error 6: The sixth error is that is says "UCDS students" when it actually means "UCSD" which stands for the Univerisity of California at San Diego a well known American university. There is no known major university which is abbreviated to UCDS. Error 7: The final error (that I could find) is that it says that 80% of UCDS (actually UCSD) students could not find it, implying 20% could. UCSD students is a top American university - but in reality the students who go there are not that clever - I doubt very much 20% could provide a full answer to the question and find all the errors. Saying they could is in itself another error. Read more: Find_the_error_its_impossible_1_2_3_4_5_6_7_8_9_10_11_12_13_14_15_16_17_18_19_20
The numbers are a red herring suggesting a mathematical answer to a grammatical error. The apostrophe is missing in its.
sequence 4 5 6 sum =10 sequecnce 0 5 10 sum=10
Double it every time and so the next number will be 80
The next number is the sequence is 10. To find the second number, 1 was subtracted from the first number To find the third number, 2 was subtracted from the second number To find the fourth number, 3 was subtracted from the third number Therefore to find the fifth number, 4 must be subtracted from the fourth number. 14 - 4 = 10
multiplied it by 100 instead of 10
"Find the error, its impossible" which is in the subject of the email should read "Find the error, it's impossible."
The numbers are a red herring suggesting a mathematical answer to a grammatical error. The apostrophe is missing in its.
The error is that the word its should have an apostrophe.
The errors are grammatical. The email came to me as follows: "Find the error, its impossible 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20" Error 1: "Find the error" is a sentence and should end with a period. Error 2: "its" is possessive but should be a contraction of "it is:" therefore, it should have an apostrophe. Error 3: "Since "it's impossible" is a sentence, "it's" should have the i capitalized. Error 4: "Since "It's impossible" is a sentence, it should have punctuation at its end. Suggestions are a period or colon. At least two more errors as 1) It's not impossible. 2) Since there are at least 3 and if including the two you included then 5, error is not singular but plural and should be "errors." (The original riddle from Facebook is explained in the related question below.) ***The "11" is BACKWARDS! Found the error. Boom!***

They are: 10 and 16
the missing space between the 5 and 6. what is so impossible about that? are you just trying to be ironic, funny?
