MCQ
The tones that are separated by three octaves have a frequency ratio of
  • A
    $3$
  • B
    $6$
  • $8$
  • D
    $16$

Answer

Correct option: C.
$8$
c
(c)

Each octaves is double the frequency of the previous octave.

If initial frequency is $f$.

Final frequency $=2 \times 2 \times 2 f$ or $2^3 f$ or $8 f$

$\therefore$ Frequency ratio $=8: 1$.
