Solution

Finding the value of the expression:
Step : Finding the value of $\vec{a} \times \vec{b}$ :
Given,
$\vec{a} = (α, β, 3), \vec{b} = (- β, - α, - 1), \vec{c} = (1, - 2, - 1),$
$\vec{a} \cdot \vec{b} = 1 \Rightarrow (- α β - α β - 3) = 1 \Rightarrow - 2 α β = 4 \Rightarrow α β = - 2 . . . (1)$
$\vec{b} . \vec{c} = - 3 \Rightarrow (- β + 2 α + 1) = - 3 \Rightarrow 2 α - β = - 4 . . . (2)$
Solving the equations $(1)$ and $(2)$ , we get
$α = - 1 β = 2$
So, vector $\vec{a} = (- 1, 2, 3)$ and $\vec{b} = (- 2, 1, - 1)$
$\vec{a} \times \vec{b} = |\begin{matrix} \hat{i} & \hat{j} & \hat{k} \\ - 1 & 2 & 3 \\ - 2 & 1 & - 1 \end{matrix}| = \hat{i} (- 5) - \hat{j} (7) + k (3) = (- 5, - 7, 3)$
Furthermore,
$(\vec{a} \times \vec{b}) . \vec{c} = (- 5, - 7, 3) . (1, - 2, - 1) = - 5 + 14 - 3 = 6$
$\frac{1}{3} ((\vec{a} x \vec{b}) . \vec{c}) = 2$
Hence, the required answer is 2.
