Correct Answer :

Option A

31104

Solution :

The correct option is 31104.

To find the next term of the series, let us analyze the relationship between consecutive terms in the given sequence: 6, 18, 108, 1296, ______.

We can determine the factor by which each term is multiplied to get the subsequent term:
- From the 1st term to the 2nd term: 6×3=18 - From the 2nd term to the 3rd term: 18×6=108 - From the 3rd term to the 4th term: 108×12=1296

Let us look at the sequence of multipliers: 3, 6, 12, ...
We can observe that each multiplier is obtained by doubling the previous one:
3×2=6
6×2=12

Following this pattern, the next multiplier in the sequence must be:
12×2=24

Therefore, to find the next term of the series, we multiply the 4th term (1296) by this next multiplier (24):
1296×24=31104
