its an exponential series. 3^0=1 3^1=3 3^2=9 3^3=27 3^4=81 3^5=X
more of how to solve it then the answer
[if your still stuck think of it as 81x3=X] in laymans terms 243, times it by 3 each time.

the series 1,8,27,64,125 may also be describe as:
1 cubed, 2 cubed, 3 cubed, 4 cubed, 5 cubed
(that is 1 x 1 x 1, 2 x 2 x 2, 3 x 3 x 3, 4 x 4 x 4, 5 x 5 x 5)
So the next number in the pattern is 6 x 6 x 6 = 216
It is: 125
Factors are the numbers you multiple together to get another number. 125: 1, 5, 25, 125
As a product of its prime factors: 5*5*5 = 125 or as 53 = 125
The number is 130.
Their greatest common factor is 5.
