A Correct answer
Explanation

The series pattern is: each term is the cube of a number minus the number itself (n³ - n). Checking: 17³-17=4913-17=4896≠4912, 16³-16=4096-16=4080≠4095, 15³-15=3375-15=3360≠3374. The pattern doesn't fit. However, checking option A: 14³-14=2744-14=2730≠2744. Option A is correctly identified as wrong.
