Answer:

488281250 is the Twelfth

Explanation:

The geometric sequence is multiplying by 5

2, 10, 50,

2 times 5 is 10 (First)

10 times 5 is 50 (Second)

50 times 5 is 250 (Third)

250 times 5 is 1250 (Fourth)

1250 times 5 is 6250 (Fifth)

6250 times 5 is 31250 (Sixth)

31250 times 5 is 156250 (Seventh)

156250 times 5 is 781250 (Eighth)

781250 times 5 is 3906250 (Ninth)

3906250 times 5 is 19531250 (Tenth)

19531250 times 5 is 97656250 (Eleventh)

97656250 times 5 is 488281250 (Twelfth)
