SOLUTION: What are the next 3 numbers in this number sequence 12, 24, 36, 48, 510? I have tried adding multiples of 12. That doesn't work for 510. Do I just add 12 to 510 (522, 534,546)?

To get from 12 to 24, add 1 to the 1 to get 2, add 2 to the 2 to get 4.

To get from 24 to 36, add 1 to the 2 to get 3, add 2 to the 4 to get 6.

To get from 36 to 48, add 1 to the 3 to get 4, add 2 to the 6 to get 8.

To get from 48 to 510, add 1 to the 4 to get 5, add 2 to the 8 to get 10.
