We have been given the following series:

-8      9       __      16

Lets try and rewrite this as follows:

(-2)³      (3)²        ___      (4)²

Now the progression clearly tells us that we need to have one less than the last number in brackets (parathesis); we can also tell that it needs to be a negative number and also that we will need to cube it (in other words raise it to a power of 3)

So here is the series we have now:

(-2)³      (3)²       (-3)³      (4)²

(-3)³ is nothing but -27 and this will be our answer.
