Correct Answer: a 3 : c 3
Solution : a : b = b : c $⇒\frac{\text{a}}{\text{b}} = \frac{\text{b}}{\text{c}}$ $⇒ \text{b}^2 = \text{ac}$ Cubing on both sides, we get, $⇒ \text{b}^6 = \text{a}^3\text{c}^3$ $⇒ \frac{\text{a}^6}{\text{b}^6} = \frac{\text{a}^6}{\text{a}^3 \text{c}^3}$ $⇒ \frac{\text{a}^6}{\text{b}^6} = \frac{\text{a}^3}{\text{c}^3}$ Hence, the correct answer is $\text{a}^3: \text{c}^3$.
