Correct Answer: $2a^3+2b^3+2c^3-6abc$
Solution : $(a+b+c)\left\{(a-b)^2+(b-c)^2+(c-a)^2\right\}$ $=((a+b+c)\left\{(a^2+b^2-2ab+b^2+c^2-2bc+c^2+a^2-2ac)\right\}$ $=((a+b+c)\left\{(2a^2+2b^2+2c^2-2ab-2bc-2ac)\right\}$ $=(2a^3+2ab^2+2ac^2-2a^2b-2abc-2a^2c+2a^2b+2b^3+2c^2b-2ab^2-2b^2c-2abc+2a^2c+2b^2c+2c^3-2abc-2bc^2-2ac^2)$ $=2a^3-2abc+2b^3-2abc+2c^3-2abc$ $=2a^3+2b^3+2c^3-6abc$ Hence, the correct answer is '$2a^3+2b^3+2c^3-6abc$'.
