the second is 8 cubes total. 2*2*2
the third is 27 cubes total. 3*3*3
I can't figure out the pattern or equation i can use to find the 100th collection in the sequence

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
you have a sequence for cubic numbers:
{1, 8, 27, 64, 125, 216,343, 512, 729, 1000}... terms collection, cubes
as you can see, these numbers could be written as:{1^3, 2^3, 3^3, 4^3, 5^3, 6^3, 7^3, 8^3, 9^3,10^3}
so, the pattern or equation is: 
in the  collection in this sequence you will have  cubes
