The correct Answer is:
To find the wrong number in the sequence 1, 8, 27, 84, 125, 216, 343, we will analyze the pattern of the numbers. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Pattern**: The sequence appears to be related to the cubes of natural numbers. Let's calculate the cubes of the first few natural numbers: - \(1^3 = 1\) - \(2^3 = 8\) - \(3^3 = 27\) - \(4^3 = 64\) - \(5^3 = 125\) - \(6^3 = 216\) - \(7^3 = 343\) 2. **List the Cubes**: Now, we can list the cubes alongside the given sequence: - \(1^3 = 1\) - \(2^3 = 8\) - \(3^3 = 27\) - \(4^3 = 64\) (This is where we notice a discrepancy) - \(5^3 = 125\) - \(6^3 = 216\) - \(7^3 = 343\) 3. **Compare the Sequences**: Now, let's compare the calculated cubes with the given sequence: - Given: 1, 8, 27, **84**, 125, 216, 343 - Expected: 1, 8, 27, **64**, 125, 216, 343 4. **Identify the Wrong Number**: From the comparison, we can see that the number **84** in the provided sequence does not match the expected number **64**. Therefore, **84** is the wrong number in the sequence. 5. **Conclusion**: The wrong number in the sequence is **84**. ### Final Answer: The wrong number in the sequence is **84**.
