Given that a+2b is collinear with c
a+2b=λcfor some scalar λ1
 And b+3c is collinear with a
b+3c=μafor some scalar μ2
From eq1 we have a=λc2b
Substituting the value of a in 2 we get 
b+3c=μ(λc2b)
(1+2μ)b+(3μλ)c=o
1+2μ=0 and 3μλ=0 (b and c are Non collinear vectors)
μ=12 and λ=6 and λ=6
Substituting  the values of λ and μ in 1 and 2 respectively 
We get a+2b+6c=0
