Solution

The correct option is B (p+q+r)2
suppose
(α,β) be the roots of x2+px+qr=0

(β,γ) are the roots of x2+qr+rp=0

and (α,γ) are the root of x2+rx+pq=0

α+β=pβ+γ=qα+γ=r

adding all roots equations we get

2α+2β+2γ=pqr2(α+β+γ)=(p+q+r)α+β+γ=12(p+q+r)

then the sum of three common root is (p+q+r)2

A is the correct answer
