જો સમાંતર શ્રેણીમાં આવેલી ત્રણ સંખ્યાઓનો સરવાળો $24$ અને તેમનો ગુણાકાર $440$ હોય તો આ સંખ્યાઓ શોધો. 

A

$5,8,11$

B

$5,8,11$

C

$5,8,11$

D

$5,8,11$

Solution

Let the three numbers in $A.P.$ be $a-d, a,$ and $a+d$

According to the given information,

$(a-d)+(a)+(a+d)=24$        ………$(1)$

$\Rightarrow 3 a=24$

$\therefore a=8$

$(a-d) a(a+d)=440$           ………$(2)$

$\Rightarrow(8-d)(8)(8+d)=440$

$\Rightarrow(8-d)(8+d)=55$

$\Rightarrow 64-d^{2}=55$

$\Rightarrow d^{2}=64-55=9$

$\Rightarrow d^{2}=\pm 3$

Therefore, when $d=3,$ the numbers are $5,8$ and $11$ and when $d=-3,$ the numbers are $11,8$ and $5$

Thus, the three numbers are $5,8$ and $11 .$
