Answer 1

Answer:

I think the answer should be 36..

Actually I am not sure..

Answer 2

Solution:

• First number is $1=1^{2}$

• Second number is $8=2^{3}$

• Third number is $4=2^{2}$

• Fourth number is $27=3^{3}$

• Fifth number is $9=3^{2}$

Following the above rule, we can conclude that the next number will be an exponent of $4$.

Since the series follow exponents $3,\:2,\:3,\:2,\:...$, the required number be

• $4^{3}=64$

Answer: complete series is $1,\:8,\:4,\:27,\:9,\:64$.
