54 and 972
the first two numbers are multiplied together to get the third number- 12 x 0.05=6, 0.5 x 6=3, 6 x 3=18, 3 x 18=54, 18 x 54=972

Answer:

The complete series is :

12, 0.5, 6, 3, 18, 54, 972....

Explanation:

We can see that the series is working on a pattern here.

The first two numbers are multiplied together to get the third term.

Like :
12*0.5=6


0.5*6=3.0


6*3=18

So, the next terms will be :


3*18=54


18*54=972

Hence, the complete series will be :

12, 0.5, 6, 3, 18, 54, 972....
