nth term of an A.P whose starting term is "a" and common difference is "d"
is an = a+(n-1)d

1st term = a   3rd term =a+2d  17th term = a+16d

According to question 

a+a+2d+a+16d=216

3a+18d=216

3(a+6d) = 216

a+6d= 216/3

a+6d= 72

Sum of "n" terms in an AP = n(2a+(n-1)d)/2

Sum of thirteen terms = 13(2a+12d)/2

                                   =13(a+6d) = 13*72 = 936
