Question
$$\frac{1}{{1 + {x^{\left( {b - a} \right)}} + {x^{\left( {c - a} \right)}}}} \,+ $$    $$\frac{1}{{1 + {x^{\left( {a - b} \right)}} + {x^{\left( {c - b} \right)}}}} \,+ $$    $$\frac{1}{{1 + {x^{\left( {b - c} \right)}} + {x^{\left( {a - c} \right)}}}} = ?$$
Options:
A .  0
B .  1
C .  xa-b-c
D .  None of these
Answer: Option B
$$\eqalign{
& {\text{Given expression, }} \cr
& \frac{1}{{1 + \frac{{{x^b}}}{{{x^a}}} + \frac{{{x^c}}}{{{x^a}}}}} + \frac{1}{{1 + \frac{{{x^a}}}{{{x^b}}} + \frac{{{x^c}}}{{{x^b}}}}} + \frac{1}{{1 + \frac{{{x^b}}}{{{x^c}}} + \frac{{{x^a}}}{{{x^c}}}}} \cr} $$
  $$ = \frac{{{x^a}}}{{\left( {{x^a} + {x^b} + {x^c}} \right)}} + $$    $$\frac{{{x^b}}}{{\left( {{x^a} + {x^b} + {x^c}} \right)}} + $$   $$\frac{{{x^c}}}{{\left( {{x^a} + {x^{b}} + {x^c}} \right)}}$$
$$\eqalign{
& = \frac{{\left( {{x^a} + {x^b} + {x^c}} \right)}}{{\left( {{x^a} + {x^b} + {x^c}} \right)}} \cr
& = 1 \cr} $$
