The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the three arithmetic means (A1, A2, A3), three geometric means (G1, G2, G3), and three harmonic means (H1, H2, H3) between two positive numbers \( a \) and \( b \) (where \( a > b \)). ### Step 1: Finding the Arithmetic Means The three arithmetic means between \( a \) and \( b \) can be found using the formula for arithmetic progression (AP). If \( A_1, A_2, A_3 \) are the arithmetic means, we can express them as: - \( A_1 = a + d \) - \( A_2 = a + 2d \) - \( A_3 = a + 3d \) Where \( d \) is the common difference. The common difference can be calculated as: \[ d = \frac{a - b}{4} \] Thus, substituting \( d \): - \( A_1 = a + \frac{a - b}{4} = \frac{5a - b}{4} \) - \( A_2 = a + \frac{2(a - b)}{4} = \frac{3a + b}{4} \) - \( A_3 = a + \frac{3(a - b)}{4} = \frac{a + 3b}{4} \) ### Step 2: Finding the Geometric Means The three geometric means between \( a \) and \( b \) can be found using the formula for geometric progression (GP). If \( G_1, G_2, G_3 \) are the geometric means, we can express them as: - \( G_1 = \sqrt{a \cdot b} \) - \( G_2 = \sqrt{G_1 \cdot b} = \sqrt{a \cdot b} \cdot \sqrt{\frac{b}{a}} = b^{3/4} a^{1/4} \) - \( G_3 = \sqrt{G_2 \cdot b} = \sqrt{G_1 \cdot G_2} = \sqrt{b^{3/4} a^{1/4} \cdot b} = a^{1/2} b^{1/2} \) ### Step 3: Finding the Harmonic Means The three harmonic means between \( a \) and \( b \) can be found using the formula for harmonic progression (HP). If \( H_1, H_2, H_3 \) are the harmonic means, we can express them as: \[ H_n = \frac{2ab}{a + b} \] Thus, the harmonic means can be calculated as: - \( H_1 = \frac{2ab}{a + b} \) - \( H_2 = \frac{2ab}{a + b} \) - \( H_3 = \frac{2ab}{a + b} \) ### Conclusion Now, we can summarize the results: - The three arithmetic means are \( A_1, A_2, A_3 \). - The three geometric means are \( G_1, G_2, G_3 \). - The three harmonic means are \( H_1, H_2, H_3 \).

To solve the problem, we need to find the three arithmetic means (A1, A2, A3), three geometric means (G1, G2, G3), and three harmonic means (H1, H2, H3) between two positive numbers \( a \) and \( b \) (where \( a > b \)). ### Step 1: Finding the Arithmetic Means The three arithmetic means between \( a \) and \( b \) can be found using the formula for arithmetic progression (AP).
