- The sequence given is: 24, 60, 120, 210, 336, ?

- Each number in the series is calculated using the formula n(n+1)(n+2)/6, where n starts from 2.

- For 24: 2(2+1)(2+2)/6 = 24

- For 60: 3(3+1)(3+2)/6 = 60

- For 120: 4(4+1)(4+2)/6 = 120

- For 210: 5(5+1)(5+2)/6 = 210

- For 336: 6(6+1)(6+2)/6 = 336

- The next term for n=7 is calculated as: 7(7+1)(7+2)/6 = 504

- Therefore, the missing number is 504.
