Correct Answer :

Option B

343

125

Solution :

The correct answer is 343.

To find the missing term in the given numerical series, let us analyze the pattern followed by the numbers in the series:

27, 64, 125, 216, ?

Each term in the series represents the cube of consecutive natural numbers starting from 3:

33=27

43=64

53=125

63=216

Following this pattern, the next term in the series will be the cube of 7:

73=343

Therefore, the missing term in the series is 343.
