$a, b, c$ are three non-zero,non-coplanar vectors and $p, q, r$ are three other vectors such that $p = \frac{b \times c}{a \cdot (b \times c)}$,$q = \frac{c \times a}{a \cdot (b \times c)}$,$r = \frac{a \times b}{a \cdot (b \times c)}$. Then $[p, q, r]$ equals

  • A
    $a \cdot (b \times c)$
  • B
    $\frac{1}{a \cdot (b \times c)}$
  • C
    $0$
  • D
    None of these
