    C)  7, 8, 8, 9       

    D)  8, 8, 8, 8

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

         Since mode of four numbers is 8 therefore 8 occurs at least two times and 7 is one of them. So, three observations are 7, 8, 8 Now, Let fourth observations be\[x.\] \[\therefore \]\[7+8+8+x=4\times 8\] \[\Rightarrow \]\[x=32-23=9\]
