(C) The harmonic mean $(H)$ of two numbers $x$ and $y$ is given by $H = \frac{2xy}{x + y}$.Let $x = \frac{a}{1 - ab}$ and $y = \frac{a}{1 + ab}$.Then $xy = \frac{a^2}{(1 - ab)(1 + ab)} = \frac{a^2}{1 - a^2b^2}$.And $x + y = \frac{a}{1 - ab} + \frac{a}{1 + ab} = \frac{a(1 + ab) + a(1 - ab)}{(1 - ab)(1 + ab)} = \frac{a + a^2b + a - a^2b}{1 - a^2b^2} = \frac{2a}{1 - a^2b^2}$.Therefore,$H = \frac{2 	imes \left( \frac{a^2}{1 - a^2b^2} ight)}{\frac{2a}{1 - a^2b^2}} = \frac{2a^2}{2a} = a$.

The harmonic mean of $\frac{a}{1 - ab}$ and $\frac{a}{1 + ab}$ is
