Step-by-step explanation:
If the sum of three numbers in A.P., is 24 and their product is 440, find the numbers. Let the three numbers in A.P. be a – d, a, and a + d. 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.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the three numbers be a-d, a, a+d.
Given,
Sum of three numbers = 24
=> a - d + a + a + d = 24
=> 3a = 24
=> a = 8
Product of three numbers = 440
=> (a - d )(a)(a + d) = 440
=> (a - d)(a + d) = 440/a
=> (a - d) (a + d) = 440/8 = 55 ( ∵ a = 8)
=> a² - d² = 55
=> 8² - d² = 55
=> d² = 64 - 55 = 9
=> d = ±3
When d = +3,
The number series is: 8 - 3, 8, 8 +3 = 5, 8 , 11
When d = -3,
The number series is : 8 - (-3), 8, 8 + (- 3) = 11, 8, 5
