Question
Which number best completes the sequence

107  214  642  2568   12840

Possiable answer

1. 76400

2. 76004

3. 77000

4. 77040  

5. 77400


I get 77040 as my answer. 64200+12840

Is this correct


Answer
Here is the pattern

107(n + 1)!

whereas "n" is any number.

107 * (1 + 1)! = 107 * 2! = 107 * 2 = 214
107 * (2 + 1)! = 107 * 3! = 107 * 6 = 642
107 * (3 + 1)! = 107 * 4! = 107 * 24 = 2568
107 * (4 + 1)! = 107 * 5! = 107 * 120 = 12840

So the next one would be

107 * (5 + 1)! = 107 * 6! = 107 * 720 = 77040

So you are correct
