The sequence is 3(1^2), 3(2^2), 3(3^2), which follows the formula 3(n^2). For the 10th term, calculate 3 * (10^2) = 3 * 100 = 300.

AI explanation

The given sequence is formed by multiplying the perfect squares of consecutive natural numbers by the constant number 3. The terms are calculated as 3 multiplied by 1 squared equals 3, 3 multiplied by 2 squared equals 12 and 3 multiplied by 3 squared equals 27. Using this method, the 10th term is found by multiplying 3 by the square of 10. This calculation is 3 multiplied by 100, which equals 300.
