Split 207 into three parts such that these are in AP and the product of the two smaller parts is 4623.
Let the three parts of the number 207 are (a – d), a and (a + d), which are in AP
Now, by given condition,
$\Rightarrow \quad$ Sum of these parts $=207$
$\Rightarrow \quad a-d+a+a+d=207$
$\Rightarrow \quad 3 a=207$
$a=69$
Given that, product of the two smaller parts $=4623$
$\Rightarrow \quad a(a-d)=4623$
$\Rightarrow \quad 69 \cdot(69-d)=4623$
$\Rightarrow \quad 69-d=67$
$\Rightarrow \quad \quad d=69-67=2$
So, $\quad$ first part $=a-d=69-2=67$,
second part $=a=69$
and $\quad$ third part $=a+d=69+2=71$,
Hence, required three parts are 67, 69, 71.
