survey for checking the sales of each product of the shop he found
that the no. of people who bought only pen, only pencil, & only
notebook are in A.P. in no particular order. Similarly, the number of
people who bought exactly two of the three products are in A.P. too.

It was also found that the no. of people who bought all the products is
1/20th of the number of people who bought pencil only which in turn
is equal to half of the number of people who bought notebook only.
The number of people that bought both pen & pencil is 15, whereas
that of those who bought pencil & notebook is 19. The number of
