Question
$\begin{vmatrix}0&\text{b}^2\text{a}&\text{c}^2\text{a}\\\text{a}^2\text{b}&0&\text{c}^2\text{b}\\\text{a}^2\text{c}&\text{b}^2\text{c}&0\end{vmatrix}=2\text{a}^3\text{b}^3\text{c}^3$

Answer

$\text{L.H.S}=\begin{vmatrix}0&\text{b}^2\text{a}&\text{c}^2\text{a}\\\text{a}^2\text{b}&0&\text{c}^2\text{b}\\\text{a}^2\text{c}&\text{b}^2\text{c}&0\end{vmatrix}$
$=\frac{1}{\text{abc}}\begin{vmatrix}0&\text{b}^3\text{a}&\text{c}^3\text{a}\\\text{a}^3\text{b}&0&\text{c}^3\text{b}\\\text{a}^3\text{c}&\text{b}^3\text{c}&0\end{vmatrix} \ [$Multiplying the three columns by $a, b,$ and $c]$
$=\frac{\text{abc}}{\text{abc}}\begin{vmatrix}0&\text{b}^3&\text{c}^3\\\text{a}^3&0&\text{c}^3\\\text{a}^3&\text{b}^3&0\end{vmatrix} \ [$Taking out $a, b$ and $c$ common from the three rows$]$
$=\text{b}^3\begin{vmatrix}\text{b}^3&\text{c}^3\\\text{a}^3&0\end{vmatrix}+\text{c}^3\begin{vmatrix}\text{a}^3&0\\\text{a}^3&\text{b}^3\end{vmatrix} \ [$Expanding along $R_1]$
$=2\text{a}^3\text{b}^3\text{c}^3$

A factory makes tennis rackets and cricket bats. A tennis racket takes $1.5$ hours of machine time and $3$ hours of craftman's time in its making while a cricket bat takes $3$ hours of machine time and $1$ hour of craftman's time.
