Answer:

1.75, 0.4375

Explanation:

Note there is a common ratio between consecutive terms, that is

r = 28 ÷ 112 = 7 ÷ 28 = 0.25

Thus the sequence is geometric.

To obtain a term in the sequence multiply the previous term by 0.25

7 × 0.25 = 1.75

1.75 × 0.25 = 0.4375

The next 2 terms in the sequence are 1.75, 0.4375
