Answer:

K=6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume that the terms are in AP.

Therefore,

AP : 2k+1 , 3k+3 , 5k-1 , .........

Now, in an AP we now that the common difference between any two consecutive terms is same.

so this also implies here.

So,

 a_{2} -  a_{1} =  a_{3} -  a_{2}

(3k + 3) - (2k + 1) = (5k - 1) - (3k + 3)

3k + 3 - 2k - 1 = 5k - 1 - 3k - 3

k + 2 = 2k - 4

k - 2k =  - 4  - 2

 - k =  - 6

k = 6

Therefore the required value of K is 6.
