    You need to find the next number in the sequence? Or you need to know what makes this sequence the way it is?

    What times 27 = 243? I took a WAG and figured it out. It has something in common with the first 2 numbers.

    Then next in sequence would be 2187.

    Em is right, the first 2 numbers should give you a pretty good hint.

    What times 3 is 27? Does that number times 27 give you 243?
