The mistakes i see are :
1. "The" was repeated twice
2. Also if the colors were to be taken logically in terms of ROYGBIV, these means the numbers should be colored in the arrangement of;
RED,ORANGE,YELLOW,GREEN,BLUE,INDIGO, AND VIOLET that is 7 numbers, where 4 & 6 should not be der.

..Also this might be a wrong Answer cos Op only asked if the answer could be found which is YES!!

The word THEwas repeated twice.

'The'

The rainbow has 7 colors arranged as follows - Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, Violet.

That "the" was written twice...that's the MISTAKE@ op

Dotwillis1:
'The' was written twice and that's d mistake!!



This nigga above me iz high on some....

But the colors of 8 and 9 were out of synch. I saw same til u reminded me of the "the's".

2 minutes silence for those going through comments to find the answer..

greatwaters:
Your answer sounds intelligent but you are wrong on this. remember the instruction the op gave us -'spot the MISTAKE'. 3 and 8 not being in the same colour range with the others is a DIFFERENCE not a mistake. so the only mistake is 'the" that was repeated.
another possible but technical answer is pointing out the word 'mistake' in the sentence.
if the op had asked us to spot a difference, you would be correct. Following instructions carefully is important.

Thank you... No chop knockle

Laspotech pikin, u sure say u know book so?

It suppose to follow the colour of the rainbow but green appeared twice, and the colour of 8 is wrong.

8 and 9

Nawa for you oh!

6 is indigo while 7 is blue.
6 should come before 7 in the colour spectrum

although there is a mistake with the sentence cos of the repetition of 'the'.
the mistake with the colouring is on 4 & 6. if you look at the colouring, you will understand that it represented the colours of the rainbow(ROYGBIV). the only colour that stands out is 4 and 6
