Correct Answer: $\frac{1}{679}$


Solution : $\frac{432^2+247^2-432 \times 247}{432^3+247^3}$
Using identity $x^3+y^3 = (x+y)(x^2+y^2-x \times y)$,
$\frac{432^2+247^2-432 \times 247}{(432+247)(432^2+247^2-432 \times 247)}$
$=\frac{1}{(432+247)}$
$= \frac{1}{679}$
Hence, the correct answer is $\frac{1}{679}$.
