Solution

Lets take LHS,
LHS = ∣ ∣1+a1111+b1111+c∣ ∣

Take a common from R1, b common from R2 and c common from R3,
we get,
LHS = abc∣ ∣ ∣ ∣1+1a1a1a1b1+1b1b1c1c1+1c∣ ∣ ∣ ∣

Now, perform R1R1+(R2+R3)
LHS = abc∣ ∣ ∣ ∣1+1a+1b+1c1+1a+1b+1c1+1a+1b+1c1b1+1b1b1c1c1+1c∣ ∣ ∣ ∣

Take 1+1a+1b+1c common from R1
we get,
LHS = abc(1+1a+1b+1c)∣ ∣ ∣1111b1+1b1b1c1c1+1c∣ ∣ ∣

Now, perform C2C2C1 and C3C3C1
we get,
LHS = abc(1+1a+1b+1c)∣ ∣ ∣1001b101c01∣ ∣ ∣

LHS = abc(1+1a+1b+1c)(1)
LHS = abc(1+1a+1b+1c)
LHS = RHS
