the answer is A
but I don't understand the fact that if all of the given compounds are formed in COMBINATION ( as stated by the question) v wud end up with a total of 12 carbons.. whereas octane has 8. So how will they form in a Combinaton? shouldn't it be B? because in combination the total number of C's shud be 8, no? :p

Keep in mind we are not just cracking a single molecule. Countless molecules are being broken down. Any molecule that has less carbon than the original molecule is a possible product.
