Correct Answer: $1$


Solution : Given: The expression is $\frac{(x+y+z)(x y+y z+z x)–x y z}{(x+y)(y+z)(z+x)}$.
$\frac{(x+y+z)(x y+y z+z x)–x y z}{(x+y)(y+z)(z+x)}$
Substitute the value of $x=y=z=1$, in the given expression, we get,
= $\frac{(1+1+1)(1\times1+1\times 1+1\times 1)–1\times1\times1}{(1+1)(1+1)(1+1)}$
= $\frac{3\times 3–1}{2\times 2\times 2}=\frac{9–1}{8}$
= $\frac{8}{8}$ = $1$
Hence, the correct answer is 1.
