To find the 8th term of the pattern, we first need to identify the pattern itself. Looking at the numbers given, we can see that each subsequent number is obtained by multiplying the previous number by 5 and then subtracting 1. So, the pattern is: 3, 35-1=14, 145-1=69, 695-1=344, 3445-1=1719. Continuing this pattern, the 8th term would be 6249.
