Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Since, a,b & c are in GP with common ratio r.
Therefore, b = ar & c = a(r^2) ….(1)
Also, a, 2b & 3c are in AP.
So, we have, 2×2b = a+3c
=> 4b = a+3c
=> 4ar = a+3a(r^2) [using (1)]
=> 4r = 1+3(r^2) [as, a ≠ 0]
=> 3(r^2) -4r +1 = 0
=> (r-1)(3r-1) = 0
=> r = 1/3, as r ∈ (0,1).
Hope, it'll help..!!
