Answer:
The numbers are 8 , 10 , 12.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the numbers in AP be a - d , a , a + d
Then according to the question,
a - d + a + a + d = 30
=> 3a = 30
=> a = 10
and (a - d)a(a + d) = 960
=> a (a² - d²) = 960
=> 10 (10² - d²) = 960
=> 100 - d² = 96
=> 100 - 96 = d²
=> 4 = d²
=> d = ± 2
if d = 2
Then the numbers = 10 - 2 , 10 , 10 + 2
i.e. 8 , 10 , 12
if d = -2,
then the numbers = 10 - (-2) , 10 , 10 + (-2)
i.e. 12, 10, 8
Therefore the numbers are 8 , 10 , 12.
