The correct Answer is:
To find the missing term in the series 336, 210, 120, ?, 24, 6, 0, we need to identify the pattern in the sequence. Let's analyze the terms step by step. ### Step 1: Identify the pattern We observe that the series is decreasing. To find the missing term, we will analyze the terms from the right side of the series, as it might reveal a clearer pattern. ### Step 2: Write down the known terms The known terms from the right side are: - 0 - 6 - 24 ### Step 3: Analyze the relationship between the terms We can express the known terms in a factorial multiplication format: - 0 = 0 × 1 - 6 = 1 × 2 × 3 - 24 = 2 × 3 × 4 ### Step 4: Determine the missing term Following the pattern, we can see that the next term should also follow the same multiplication pattern. The term before 24 should be: - ? = 3 × 4 × 5 Calculating this gives: - 3 × 4 = 12 - 12 × 5 = 60 ### Step 5: Verify the previous terms Now, let's verify the previous terms: - 120 = 4 × 5 × 6 - 210 = 5 × 6 × 7 - 336 = 6 × 7 × 8 This confirms that the pattern is consistent. ### Conclusion Thus, the missing term in the series is **60**.
