\(\mathrm{A}(1,1,1), \mathrm{B}(1,-4,3), \mathrm{C}(2,-2,0)\) and \(\mathrm{D}(8,1,4)\) are the vertices of a tetrahedron. \(\mathrm{G}_1, \mathrm{G}_2, \mathrm{G}_3\) and \(\mathrm{G}_4\) are the centroids of the faces \(\mathrm{ABC}, \mathrm{BCD}, \mathrm{CDA}\) and \(\mathrm{DAB}\). Then the centroid of the tetrahedron having \(\mathrm{G}_1, \mathrm{G}_2, \mathrm{G}_3, \mathrm{G}_4\) as its vertices is

  1. A \((12,-4,8)\)
  2. B \(\left(4, \frac{-4}{3}, \frac{8}{3}\right)\)
  3. C \(\left(2, \frac{-2}{3}, \frac{4}{3}\right)\)
  4. D \((3,-1,2)\)
