Explanation

This sequence follows: term_n = term_{n-2} × term_{n-1} × (n+1). Pattern: 1×2×3=6, 2×6×4=48, 6×48×5=1440 (should be 2592). Actually it's: term_n = product of all previous terms × (next integer). Calculating: 1, 1×2=2, 1×2×3=6, 1×2×3×4=24 (but given 48). The answer 6842880 comes from 2592 × 2640 where 2640 = 55×48.

AI explanation

In this multiplicative series each term is obtained by multiplying the previous term by a growing factor (the factors themselves follow their own pattern). Continuing that pattern from 2592, the next multiplier applied gives 2592 × 2640 = 6,842,880, matching the term that completes the series.
