Question

Describe a pattern in the numbers. write the next number in the pattern

1,8,27,64,125...

Answer 1

The cube of 1 is 1(1 * 1 * 1 = 1)

The cube of 2 is 8 (2 * 2 * 2 = 8)

The cube of 3 is 27 (3 * 3 * 3 = 27)

The cube of 4 is 64 (4 * 4 * 4 = 64)

The cube of 5 is 125 (5 * 5 * 5 = 125

The next number would be 216

because it is the cube of 6 (6 * 6 * 6 = 216)

Answer 2

The answer is 216.

Step-by-step explanation

The general pattern is


`{x}^(3)`

Thus, you have


`{1}^(3) = 1 \\ {2}^(3) = 8 \\ {3}^(3) = 27 \\ {4}^(3) = 64 \\ {5}^(3) = 125`

Following the sequence would be


`{6}^(3) = 216`
