The rule is 3x
so to find the next number you multiple the most recent one by 3
the next three are:
32.4, 97.2, 291.6

Answer:

the next three terms in sequence are 32.4 , 97.2 and 291.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: the sequence 0.4, 1.2, 3.6, 10.8

To Find: next three numbers in the sequence

Solution:

in sequence 0.4, 1.2, 3.6, 10.8

ratio of every term to the next term is

=
(0.4)/(1.2)=(1.2)/(3.6)=(3.6)/(10.8)=1:3

therefore,

the next term to 10.8 in the sequence will be

=
10.8*3

=
32.4

the next term to 32.4 in the sequence will be

=
32.4*3

=
97.2

the next term to 97.2 in the sequence will be

=
97.2*3

=
291.6

the next three terms in sequence are
32.4 , 97.2 ,291.6
