3^2 = 9
3-1=2 so 2^3 is;
2^3 = 8.
4^2 = 16
4-1=3 so 3^3 is;
3^3=27.
3-1=2 so 2^3 is;
2^3 = 8.
4^2 = 16
4-1=3 so 3^3 is;
3^3=27.

simply,
The right answer is 27.
9 = 3^2,
8 = (3-1)^3=2^3,
16 = 4^2,
27 = (4-1)^3=3^3.
The right answer is 27.
9 = 3^2,
8 = (3-1)^3=2^3,
16 = 4^2,
27 = (4-1)^3=3^3.

Simply, the solution is;
3*3 = 9,
2*2*2 = 8,
4*4 = 16,
3*3*3 = 27.
3*3 = 9,
2*2*2 = 8,
4*4 = 16,
3*3*3 = 27.

3*3 = 9.
2*2*2 = 8 similarly,
4*4 = 16,
3*3*3 = 27.
2*2*2 = 8 similarly,
4*4 = 16,
3*3*3 = 27.

16 is correct
9 = 3^2.
8 = 2^3.
16 = 4^2.
4^2 => 16.
9 = 3^2.
8 = 2^3.
16 = 4^2.
4^2 => 16.
