Solution
The correct option is
A
2,4,6
Let the numbers be,
a
−
d
,
a
,
a
+
d
∴
a
−
d
+
a
+
a
+
d
=
12
3
a
=
12
∴
a
=
4
now,
(
a
−
d
)
3
+
a
3
+
(
a
+
d
)
2
=
288
(
a
−
d
)
3
+
(
a
+
d
)
2
=
288
−

[
(
a

+
(
a
+
d
)
2
−
(
a
−
d
)
(
a
+
d

]
=
224
(
2
×
4
)
[
(
4
−
d
)
2
+
(
4
+
d
)
2
−
(
4
−
d
)
(
4
+
d
)
]
=
224
upon solving the above equation, we get,

∴
d

Now,
The numbers are,
