Answer:
2,3,4
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the numbers be a-d,a,a+d
Given sum is 9
a-d+a+a+d=9
3a=9
a=9/3
a=3
Given product is 24
(a-d)a(a+d)=24
(a^2-d^2)a=24
(3^2-d^2)3=24
(9-d^2)3=24
9-d^2=24/3
9-d^2=8
d^2=9-8
d^2=1
d=+or - 1
if d=1
a-d=3-1=2
a=3
a+d=3+1=4
if d=-1
a-d=3-(-1)=3+1=4
a=3
a+d=3+(-1)=3-1=2
The numbers are 2 ,3 and 4
