Solution

We know the algebraic identity is,
a3+b3+c33abc=(a+b+c)(a2+b2+c2abbcca)
If, a+b+c=0 then,
a3+b3+c33abc=0(a2+b2+c2abbcca)

a3+b3+c3=0

a3+b3+c3=3abc
Now,
(p3q)3+(3q7r)3+(7rp)3
Here,
a=p3q
b=3q7r
c=7rp
Now,
p3q+3q7r+7rp=0
Thus,
(p3q)3+(3q7r)3+(7rp)3=3(p3q)(3q7r)(7rp)

Hence, Option C is correct.
