Đặt:
\(\dfrac{a}{2015}=\dfrac{b}{2016}=\dfrac{c}{2017}=k\Leftrightarrow\left\{{}\begin{matrix}a=2015k\\b=2016k\\c=2017k\end{matrix}\right.\)
Nên \(4\left(a-b\right)\left(b-c\right)=4\left(2015k-2016k\right)\left(2016k-2017k\right)=4.\left(-k\right).\left(-k\right)=4k^2\)\(\left(c-a\right)^2=\left(2017k-2015k\right)^2=4k^2\)

Đặt \(\dfrac{a}{2015}=\dfrac{b}{2016}=\dfrac{c}{2017}\)= k
\(\Rightarrow\) a = 2015 . k
b = 2016 . k
c = 2017 . k
\(\Rightarrow\) 4( a - b ) . ( b - c) = 4( 2015.k - 2016.k) .( 2016.k - 2017.k )
= 4( -k) (-k) = 4k2 (1)
( c - a)2 =( 2017.k -2015.k)2= (2k)2= 4k2(2)
Từ (1) và ( 2) \(\Rightarrow\)4( a - b).( b - c ) = (c - a )2
Áp dụng tính chất của dãy tỉ số bằng nhau, ta có:
\(\dfrac{a}{2015}=\dfrac{b}{2016}=\dfrac{c}{2017}=\dfrac{a-b}{2015-2016}=\dfrac{b-c}{2016-2017}=\dfrac{c-a}{2017-2015}\)\(\Rightarrow\dfrac{a-b}{-1}=\dfrac{b-c}{-1}=\dfrac{c-a}{2}\)
\(\Rightarrow\dfrac{a-b}{-1}.\dfrac{b-c}{-1}=\left(\dfrac{c-a}{2}\right)^2\)
\(\Rightarrow\dfrac{\left(a-b\right)\left(b-c\right)}{1}=\dfrac{\left(c-a\right)^2}{4}\)
\(\Rightarrow4\left(a-b\right)\left(b-c\right)=\left(c-a\right)^2\left(đpcm\right)\)
