Solution

The correct option is B $\frac{1}{a}, \frac{1}{b}, \frac{1}{c}$ are in A.P.
Given : $\frac{2 a + b + c}{a}, \frac{a + 2 b + c}{b}, \frac{a + b + 2 c}{c}$ are in A.P., so

$\frac{2 a + b + c}{a} - 1, \frac{a + 2 b + c}{b} - 1, \frac{a + b + 2 c}{c} - 1$ are in A.P.
$\Rightarrow \frac{a + b + c}{a}, \frac{a + b + c}{b}, \frac{a + b + c}{c}$ are in A.P.
$\Rightarrow \frac{1}{a}, \frac{1}{b}, \frac{1}{c}$ are in A.P.

If 2a+b+ca,a+2b+cb and a+b+2cc are in A.P., then

The correct option is B 1a,1b,1c are in A.P.Given : 2a+b+ca,a+2b+cb,a+b+2cc are in A.P., so 2a+b+ca−1,a+2b+cb−1,a+b+2cc−1 are in A.P. ⇒a+b+ca,a+b+cb,a+b+cc are in A.P. ⇒1a,1b,1c are in A.P.
