Solution

The correct option is D 716
P(exactly one of A or B)=P(AB)P(AB)=14=P(A)+P(B)2P(AB)

P(exactly one of C or B)=P(CB)P(CB)=14=P(C)+P(B)2P(CB)

P(exactly one of A or C)=P(AC)P(AC)=14=P(A)+P(C)2P(AC)
Adding all
2P(A)+2P(B)+2P(c)2P(AB)2P(AC)2P(BC)=34

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

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

=38+116=716
