What are the next three numbers in this series? 4, 6, 12, 18, 30, 42, 60, 72, 102, 108, ?, ?, ? @imqwerty @TheSmartOne HARD riddle.. xD

TheSmartOne (thesmartone):

adding 2, 6, 6, 12, 12, 18, 12, 30, 6 There is no pattern in this whatsoever. Maybe it has to do with the numbers. All the numbers are divisible by 2 but nothing based on that. And I don't get the answer so I just cheated ;p

imqwerty (imqwerty):

It seems like a mixed multiplication series

OpenStudy (zzr0ck3r):

2*2 2*3 2*2*3 2*2*3*3 2*3*5 2*3*7 2*2*3*5 2*2*2*3*3 Then 51*2 hmmm

OpenStudy (bobo-i-bo):

51=3*17

MARC (marc_d):

Hint: The series lists numbers that are flanked by two prime numbers..
