Detailed Solution

P (Exactly one of A or B occurs )=P(AB)P(AB)=14 P(A)+P(B)2P(AB)=14

P( Exactly one of B or C occurs )=P(BC)P(BC)=14 P(B)+P(C)2P(BC)=14

P( Exactly one of A or C occurs )=P(AC)P(AC)=14 P(C)+P(A)2P(AC)=14

Adding above 3 equations

2P(A)+2P(B)+2P(C)2P(AB)2P(BC)2P(AC)=34

P(A)+P(B)+P(C)P(AB)P(BC)P(AC)=38

P(ABC)=P(A)+P(B)+P(C)P(AB)P(AC)P(BC)+P(ABC) 

 So, P(ABC)=38+116=716
