Find the missing term in the following series: 0, 6, 24, 60, 120, ?, 336

A180

B210 ✓ Correct

C272

D316

Correct answer: (B) 210

Explanation

The missing term is 210.

Each term follows n^3 - n for n = 1, 2, 3, ...

1^3-1=0, 2^3-2=6, 3^3-3=24, 4^3-4=60, 5^3-5=120.

For n = 6: 6^3 - 6 = 216 - 6 = 210.

The next, 7^3 - 7 = 336, confirms it.
