Solution

The correct option is B $(1 + x)^{- 1} + (1 + y)^{- 1} + (1 + z)^{- 1}$
$x = l o g_{a} b c \Rightarrow 1 + x = l o g_{a} a + l o g_{a} b c = l o g_{a} a b c$
$∴ (1 + x)^{- 1} = l o g_{a b c} a$
$∴ (1 + x)^{- 1} + (1 + y)^{- 1} + (1 + z)^{- 1} = l o g_{a b c} a + l o g_{a b c} c + l o g_{a b c} b$
$= l o g_{a b c} a b c = 1$
