Detailed Solution

 Taking O as the origin,let the position vectors of A,B and C be a,b and c respectively. Then the position vectors of

G1,G2 and G3 are b+c3,c+a3 and a+b3  respectively. 

                      V1  =  16abc

 and  V2=OG1OG2OG3

 Now,  V2=OG1OG2OG3

                    V2  =b+c3c+a3a+b3

                 V2  =127b+c  c+aa+b

                 V2  =227abc

                 V2  =227 × 6V1     9V2=4V1

 Hence,   (a) is the correct answer.
