It is provided that  A occupies 2 corners of the cube.

Then, the number of atoms of A in the cell would be 18×2=14

So, B would occupy the body center as well as the rest 6 corner,

Then, the number of atoms of B in the cell is 18×6+1=74 

Taking the ratio between A and B we get,

AB=1/47/4=17

Hence, the required answer is AB7.
