Find the Missing Number:
Given sequence
1, 4, 27, 256, 3125, ..........
Show Hint
In sequence problems, look for patterns where numbers are raised to certain powers or follow mathematical operations. Identifying the pattern helps in predicting the next number in the sequence.
Let’s analyze the pattern in the sequence:
- 1 = \( 1^1 \)
- 4 = \( 2^2 \)
- 27 = \( 3^3 \)
- 256 = \( 4^4 \)
- 3125 = \( 5^5 \)
Each term is the number raised to the power of itself (i.e., \( n^n \)).
Following the same pattern, the next number should be \( 6^6 \):
\[
6^6 = 46656
\]
Thus, the missing number is \( \boxed{46656} \).
Therefore, the correct answer is \( \boxed{3} \).
