Solution

The correct option is B $\frac{3}{2}$
$α, β, a, b$ are in A.P.
$\Rightarrow b = α + 3 (β - α) = 3 β - 2 α$

$α, β, c, d$ are in G.P.
$\Rightarrow d = α \cdot {(\frac{β}{α})}^{3} = \frac{β^{3}}{α^{2}}$

$α, β, e, f$ are in H.P.
$\Rightarrow \frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{α} + 3 (\frac{1}{β} - \frac{1}{α})$
$\Rightarrow f = \frac{α β}{3 α - 2 β}$

Now, since $b, d, f$ are in G.P.,
$d^{2} = b f$
$\Rightarrow {(\frac{β^{3}}{α^{2}})}^{2} = (3 β - 2 α) \frac{α β}{(3 α - 2 β)}$
$\Rightarrow β^{5} (3 α - 2 β) = α^{5} (3 β - 2 α)$
$\Rightarrow 3 α β^{5} - 2 β^{6} = 3 β α^{5} - 2 α^{6}$
$\Rightarrow 3 α β (β^{4} - α^{4}) = 2 (β^{6} - α^{6})$
$\Rightarrow \frac{β^{6} - α^{6}}{α β (β^{4} - α^{4})} = \frac{3}{2}$
