    \[{{\log }_{3}}2,lo{{g}_{6}}2,{{\log }_{12}}2\]are in

    A)  AP                                         

    B)         GP                         

    C)         HP                         

    D)         None of these

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Consider,\[{{\log }_{2}}3,lo{{g}_{2}}6\]and \[{{\log }_{2}}12.\] We have, \[{{\log }_{2}}6={{\log }_{2}}(2\times 3)=lo{{g}_{2}}2+{{\log }_{2}}3\]  \[=1+{{\log }_{2}}3\]                 and \[{{\log }_{2}}12={{\log }_{2}}({{2}^{2}}\times 3)\]                                 \[=2{{\log }_{2}}2+{{\log }_{2}}3\] \[=2+{{\log }_{2}}3\] \[\therefore \]      \[{{\log }_{2}}3,\,1+{{\log }_{2}}\,3\]and \[2+{{\log }_{2}}3\]are in AP \[\Rightarrow \]\[{{\log }_{2}}3,lo{{g}_{2}}\,6,{{\log }_{2}}\,12\]are in AP. \[\Rightarrow \]\[{{\log }_{3}}2,lo{{g}_{6}}\,2,{{\log }_{12}}\,2\]are in HP.
