Correct Answer: $3$
Solution : Given: $a^{2}=b+c,b^{2}=c+a$, and $c^{2}=a+b$ Now, $\frac{1}{a+1}+\frac{1}{b+1}+\frac{1}{c+1}$ = $\frac{a}{a^2+a}+\frac{b}{b^2+b}+\frac{c}{c^2+c}$ (multiplying the numerator and the denominator of each term by $a,b$, and $c$ respectively) = $\frac{a}{b+c+a}+\frac{b}{c+a+b}+\frac{c}{a+b+c}$ (putting the values of $a^2,b^2$ and $c^2$) = $\frac{a+b+c}{a+b+c}$ = $1$ So, $3\left (\frac{1}{a+1}+\frac{1}{b+1}+\frac{1}{c+1}\right)=3×1=3$ Hence, the correct answer is $3$.
