Three real numbers form an arithmetic sequence, and their sum is 12, and their product is 48

Three real numbers form an arithmetic sequence, and their sum is 12, and their product is 48

Let the sequence be A-D, a, a + D. then we can get A-D + A + A + D = 12, and (A-D) a (a + D) = 48. The solution is a = 4, d = 2 & nbsp; or & nbsp; a = 4 & nbsp; d = - 2, and the sequence is 2, 4, 6 or 6, 4, 2
