The correct answer is: $1 / 4$
$\sin A \cdot \sin \left(60^{\circ}-\mathrm{A}\right) \sin \left(60^{\circ}+\mathrm{A}\right)=\mathrm{k} \sin 3 \mathrm{~A}$
$\begin{aligned} \Rightarrow & \sin \mathrm{A} \cdot \frac{\sin 3 \mathrm{~A}}{4 \sin \mathrm{A}}=\mathrm{k} \cdot \sin 3 \mathrm{~A} \\ & \quad\left[\because \sin \left(60^{\circ}+\mathrm{A}\right) \cdot \sin \left(60^{\circ}-\mathrm{A}\right)=\frac{\sin 3 \mathrm{~A}}{4 \sin \mathrm{A}}\right] \\ \Rightarrow & \frac{\sin 3 \mathrm{~A}}{4}=\mathrm{k} \cdot \sin 3 \mathrm{~A} \\ \therefore \mathrm{k} &=\frac{1}{4} \end{aligned}$
