3.What is the next term in the sequence below?

8, 27, 64, 125, ...

216
343
18
10

2^3, 3^3, 4^3, 5^3, ?

To find the next term in a sequence, we first need to identify the pattern or rule that governs the sequence. In this sequence, we can observe that each number is the cube of the natural numbers in ascending order.

The first term is 2^3 = 8 (2 cubed).
The second term is 3^3 = 27 (3 cubed).
The third term is 4^3 = 64 (4 cubed).
The fourth term is 5^3 = 125 (5 cubed).

So, to find the next term, we need to cube the next natural number, which is 6.

Therefore, the next term in the sequence is 6^3 = 216.

The correct answer is 216.
