Answer:

Companies should follow the leading company prices.

Explanation:

Oligopoly is a market structure in which few companies dominate a given market. In the above case, company a (leader) has greater market power than the other two competitors (b and c). Companies will maximize their interest, as the company has the most market power, others will determine their prices based on leading pricing decisions.
