if we take a=b=(-1) and c=8
then minimum value will be zero

Question:

If a + b + c = 1, then Find max value of  (1+a) (1+b) (1+c)?

Options:
A) 1.47
B) 2.87
C) 55 / 27
D) 2.37
Solution:
Ans: (d) Given,  a + b + c = 1

            

            a = \(\frac{1}{3}\), b = \(\frac{1}{3}\), c = \(\frac{1}{3}\)(for max value)

           a + b + c =1

           \(\frac{1}{3}\) + \(\frac{1}{3}\) + \(\frac{1}{3}\) = 1

           \(\frac{3}{3}\) = 1

            1 = 1

            put the value of a, b, c 

            (1 + a) (1 + b) (1 + c)

            (1 + \(\frac{1}{3}\) ) (1 + \(\frac{1}{3}\) ) (1 + \(\frac{1}{3}\) ) 

             \(\frac{4}{3}\) × \(\frac{4}{3}\) × \(\frac{4}{3}\)

             \(\frac{64}{27}\) = 2.37
