For the matrix A in the result, any vector in the span of the column vectors is of the form on the left.
x1[111]+x2[111]+x3[111]=[x1+x2+x3x1+x2+x3x1+x2+x3]
After multiply the scalars and adding the vectors, we get a vector of this form. Notice that all the entries vector are equal. Since the entries in vector b are not all same, 1,2,3,b cannot be in the span of the column vectors.
Result:
A=[111111111]
and
b=[123]
