3, a, b, c are in A.P.

a – 3 = b – a                                                 (common diff.)

2a = b + 3

and 3, a – 1, b + 1 are in G.P.

$\frac{a-1}{3}=\frac{b+1}{a-1}$              

a² + 1 – 2a = 3b + 3

a² – 8a + 7 = 0                                              [ $?$  2a = b + 3]

(a – 7) (a – 1) = 0

If a = 7, b = 2 (7) – 3 = 11                            b = 11                      

and c – b = a – 3

c – 11 = 4 

c = 15

A.M of 7, 11, 15 = $\frac{7+11+15}{3}$  

$=\frac{33}{3}=11$
