<h3>Answer: 5</h3>

Explanation:

This is something you could do by trial and error.

The visible numbers are 1,2,3,4,6 which multiply to 144.

Another approach is to notice that 5 is not a factor of 144, so it must be the hidden value not part of the items multiplied.

Every other number 1,2,3,4,6 is a factor of 144.

1*144 = 144

2*72 = 144

3*48 = 144

4*36 = 144

6*24 = 144
