The answer is 117649. My primary children found it a bit beyond them! =
But I always enjoyed maths at school and decided to try out a number of =
things. I think it is because the first number is (1 to the power of 0) =
the second is (2 to the power of 1), the third is (3 to the power of 2) =
the forth is (4 to the power of 3) the fifth is (5 to the power of 4) =
and the sixth is (6 to the power of 5) so my number should be (7 to the =
power of 6) which is 117649.
Another way to show the pattern:
1
2
3x3
4x4x4
5x5x5x5
6x6x6x6x6
7x7x7x7x7x7
