Solution

The correct option is B 3nCm
(1+x)n(1+y)n(1+z)n
=(nr=0nCrxr)(ns=0nCsys)(nt=0nCtzt)
=0r,s,tn(nCr)(nCs)(nCt)xryszt
For sum of the coefficients of degree m, we must have r+s+t=m
Where r,s,t are integers with r,s,t0
Sum of such coefficients =r,s,t0r+s+t=m(nCr)(nCs)(nCt)
=the number of ways of choosing a total number of m balls out of n black, n white and n green balls
=3nCm
