COMMENTS
Inspired by the problem 141 of Project Euler (see the link).
The terms of this sequence are oblong numbers m = k*(k+1) with k in A024619.
When q < r < d are consecutive terms of a geometric progression of constant b = p/s noninteger, with b>1, s>=2, p>s, it is necessary that q is a multiple of s^2, so q = q' * s^2 with q' >= 1; the Euclidean division of a term m by q becomes
p*s*q' * (1+p*s*q') = (p^2*q') * (s^2*q') + p*s*q' with k = p*s*q',
so (q, r, d) = (s^2*q', p*s*q', p^2*q') is solution. (see examples).
But, as these terms are oblong, there exists also another division where the constant ratio is the integer psq' and (q,r,d) = (1, p*s*q', (p*s*q')^2) are in geometric progression.
