(C) Given that $\bar{p}=\frac{\bar{b} 	imes \bar{c}}{[\bar{a} \bar{b} \bar{c}]}, \bar{q}=\frac{\bar{c} 	imes \bar{a}}{[\bar{a} \bar{b} \bar{c}]}, \bar{r}=\frac{\bar{a} 	imes \bar{b}}{[\bar{a} \bar{b} \bar{c}]}$.We know that the scalar triple product $[\bar{a} \bar{b} \bar{c}] = \bar{a} \cdot (\bar{b} 	imes \bar{c})$.Now,calculate each term:$\bar{a} \cdot \bar{p} = \bar{a} \cdot \left( \frac{\bar{b} 	imes \bar{c}}{[\bar{a} \bar{b} \bar{c}]} ight) = \frac{\bar{a} \cdot (\bar{b} 	imes \bar{c})}{[\bar{a} \bar{b} \bar{c}]} = \frac{[\bar{a} \bar{b} \bar{c}]}{[\bar{a} \bar{b} \bar{c}]} = 1$.Similarly,$\bar{b} \cdot \bar{q} = \bar{b} \cdot \left( \frac{\bar{c} 	imes \bar{a}}{[\bar{a} \bar{b} \bar{c}]} ight) = \frac{\bar{b} \cdot (\bar{c} 	imes \bar{a})}{[\bar{a} \bar{b} \bar{c}]} = \frac{[\bar{b} \bar{c} \bar{a}]}{[\bar{a} \bar{b} \bar{c}]} = \frac{[\bar{a} \bar{b} \bar{c}]}{[\bar{a} \bar{b} \bar{c}]} = 1$.And $\bar{c} \cdot \bar{r} = \bar{c} \cdot \left( \frac{\bar{a} 	imes \bar{b}}{[\bar{a} \bar{b} \bar{c}]} ight) = \frac{\bar{c} \cdot (\bar{a} 	imes \bar{b})}{[\bar{a} \bar{b} \bar{c}]} = \frac{[\bar{c} \bar{a} \bar{b}]}{[\bar{a} \bar{b} \bar{c}]} = \frac{[\bar{a} \bar{b} \bar{c}]}{[\bar{a} \bar{b} \bar{c}]} = 1$.Therefore,$\bar{a} \cdot \bar{p} + \bar{b} \cdot \bar{q} + \bar{c} \cdot \bar{r} = 1 + 1 + 1 = 3$.
