let the three numbers be :
a+d , a , a-d
given the sum is 12 so add the numbers
3a = 12
a = 4 ( therefore the first number of the ap is 4)
(a+d)(a)(a-d) = 48 ( we take a to the left hand side it becomes division)
(a2 - d2) = 48/4
(42 - d2) = 12
16 - d2 = 12
-d2 = -4
d= 2
therefore the numbers are 2,4,6.
