The missing number i.e. 6th term of the given series is 480.

The logic of the series of numbers is as follows :

Initial Number to start = 4

Second number i.e. 4 = 4 * 1

Third Number     i.e. 8 = 4 * 2

Fourth Number   i.e. 24 = 8 * 3

Fifth Number       i.e. 96 = 24 * 4

The second number i.e. X_{2} is 1 times the first number. The third number i.e. X_{3} is twice the second number. The fourth number i.e. X_{4} is thrice the third number and so on.

Thus, the general logic is that the Nth number in the series is (N-1) times the (N-1)th number.

                     X_{n} = (n-1) * X_{n-1}

We need to find the 6th term in the sequence ( n= 6 ) :

                       X_{6} = (6-1) * X_{6-1}

                             = 5 * X_{5}

                             = 5 * 96

                             = 480

Hence, 480 is the missing number in the given mental ability series.
