What will be the next term in the given series?

8, 27, 64, 125, ?

  • A.236
  • B.276
  • C.225
  • D.216

Answer: D

The terms are cubes of consecutive numbers: \(2^3 = 8\), \(3^3 = 27\), \(4^3 = 64\) and \(5^3 = 125\). So the next term is the cube of 6.

\[ 6^3 = 216 \]

The values 236, 276 and 225 do not follow the pattern: 225 is the square of 15 and the other two are not cubes. The answer is 216, option D.
