Given:

A, B and C are denoting Mean, Median and Mode of a data.

A ∶ B  = 9  8.

Concept used:

3 × Median = 2 × Mean + Mode

Calculation:

Let the mean i.e. A and median i.e. B be 9k and 8k respectively.

​According to the concept,

3 × 8k = 2 × 9k + C

⇒ C = 6k

Now, B : C = 8k : 6k = 4 : 3

∴ The value of B : C is 4 : 3.
