Solution
\[a - d + a + a + d = 207\]
\[ \Rightarrow 3a = 207\]
\[ \Rightarrow a = 69\]
\[Now, \left( a - d \right) \times a = 4623\]
\[ \Rightarrow 69\left( 69 - d \right) = 4623\]
\[ \Rightarrow \left( 69 - d \right) = 67\]
\[ \Rightarrow d = 2\]
\[\text{ Therefore, the three required parts are 67, 69 and 71} .\]
