      The sum of three numbers in AP is 21, and their product

      is 315. Find the numbers.
      A 5,7,9 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 2,3,5 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 8,4,5 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 7,7,2 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ATQ,

      → Let (a − d), a, (a + d). Sum = 3a = 21 ⇒ a = 7. Product = (7 − d)·7·(7 + d) = 315 ⇒ 7(49 − d²) = 315 ⇒ 49 − d² = 45 ⇒ d² = 4 ⇒ d = 2. Numbers: 5, 7, 9
