The Correct Option is C

Solution and Explanation

Step 1: Understanding the Concept
For a transistor the d.c. current gains are related by \(\beta_{DC}=\dfrac{\alpha_{DC}}{1-\alpha_{DC}}\).

Step 2: Substitute
With \(\alpha_{DC}=\dfrac{69}{70}\), \(1-\alpha_{DC}=\dfrac{1}{70}\).

Step 3: Calculation
\(\beta_{DC}=\dfrac{69/70}{1/70}=69\).

Step 4: Compare the options
This is option (C).

Final Answer:
The current gain beta is 69. \[ \boxed{\text{(C) }69} \]
