#{8,24,72,216,648,1944,5832,17496,52488,157464,472392,1417176}#

Explanation:

I am assuming that this is a geometric sequence in the form:

#a,ar,ar^2,ar^3...#

We know that:

#a_1=8#

#r=3#

We multiply by #3# to get to the next term.

#8=>24=>72=>216=>648=>1944=>5832=>17496=>52488=>157464=>472392=>1417176#

The answer is #{8,24,72,216,648,1944,5832,17496,52488,157464,472392,1417176}#
