(A) a,b,c are in AP

\rightarrow \frac{a}{abc},\frac{b}{abc},\frac{c}{abc} are in AP

(dividing by same term gives a new AP)

(B) a,b,c are in AP

\rightarrow 2a,2b,2c are in AP

(multiplying by same term gives a new AP)

(C) a,b,c are in AP

\rightarrow c,b,a are in AP

(Reverse of an AP  is also an AP)

So, (D) is not an AP
