The question is a little vague but I believe the answer would be 16. 16 divided in half is 8. And that is 8 less than 16. < Not the answer for this question.

I didn't understand the question until Maria answered, she is completely right! Sorry for the misunderstanding.

1/2 of x is 2/3 of x minus 8

(1/2)x = (2/3)x -8

clear fraction by multiplying by 6

3x = 4x -48

x = 48

the sum of three number number in an artithmetic product is 21. if second number isreduced by 1 and third term is increased by 1
grin007 [14]

The three numbers will be 12, 7, 2 and 3, 7, 11.

<h3>What is a sequence?</h3>

A sequence is a list of elements that have been ordered in a sequential manner, such that members come either before or after.

Let the three consecutive numbers be a, a + d, and a + 2d

The sum of three numbers which are consecutive terms of an A.P. is 21.

a + a + d + a + 2d = 21

3(a + d) = 21

a = 7 - d

If the second number is reduced by 1 and the third term is increased by 1 we obtain the geometric product.

Then the number will be a, a + d − 1, a + 2d + 1. Then we have

\rm \dfrac{a + d - 1}{a} = \dfrac{a + 2d + 1}{a + d - 1}

On simplifying, we have

36 = a (8 + d)

a² - 15a + 36 = 0

On factorizing, the value of a will be

a² - 15a + 36 = 0

a² - 12a  - 3a + 36 = 0

(a - 12)(a - 3) = 0

a = 3, 12

If a = 12, then the value of d will be

d = 7 - 12

d = -5

If a = 3, then the value of d will be

d = 7 - 3

d = 4

Then the three numbers will be 12, 7, 2 and 3, 7, 11.

More about the sequence link is given below.

To my knowledge, the answer should be there is no difference since I found the sum, however the answer is something else,
olga nikolaevna [1]
In the first series, the summation applies to the whole (2n+3) inside
the parentheses, so the 3 gets summed up 5 times.

But in the second one, the summation only applies to the 2n , so
the 3 is only added after the summation is finished.

The difference between five 3s the first time and one 3 the second time
is your 12 .
