  1. Let a be the First term, a3 be the third term, a5 be the 5th term and a7 be the 7th term
    We know, an=a+(n1)d

      a3=16                 [ Given ]

      a+(31)d=16
      a+2d=16 ……. (1)
      Now, a7a5=12          [ Given ]
      [a+(71)d][a+(51)d]=12
      2d=12
      d=6
    From equation (1), we get
    a+2(6)=16
    a+12=16
      a=4
    So first term is 4
    We can find AP by adding d continuously.
      Required AP is 4,10,16,22,28,34,40,......
