Let a triangle $PQR$ be such that $P$ and $Q$ lie on the line $\frac{x+3}{8} = \frac{y-4}{2} = \frac{z+1}{2}$ and are at a distance of $6$ units from $R(1, 2, 3)$. If $(\alpha, \beta, \gamma)$ is the centroid of $\triangle PQR$, then $\alpha + \beta + \gamma$ is equal to :

  • A
    $4$
  • B
    $5$
  • C
    $6$
