Detailed Solution

We have P(ABC)=34
 I.e, P(A)+P(B)+P(C)P(AB)P(BC)P(CA)+P(ABC)(i)
P(AB)+P(BC)+P(AC)
 2P(ABC)=12( ii )
And P(AB)+P(BC)+P(AC)
3P(ABC)=25( iii )
From eq’s (ii) and (iii) we get
P(ABC)=1225=110(iv)P(A)P(B)P(C)=110PMC=110
From eq’s (i) ,(ii) and (iii) we have
P(A)+P(B)+P(C)12+210+110=34P+m+c=2720
