(B) Given that,$\frac{1}{b+c} + \frac{1}{c+a} = \frac{3}{a+b+c}$.Taking common denominators on the left side:$\frac{(c+a) + (b+c)}{(b+c)(c+a)} = \frac{3}{a+b+c}$$\frac{a+b+2c}{bc + ab + c^2 + ac} = \frac{3}{a+b+c}$Cross-multiplying:$(a+b+2c)(a+b+c) = 3(bc + ab + c^2 + ac)$$(a+b)^2 + c(a+b) + 2c(a+b) + 2c^2 = 3bc + 3ab + 3c^2 + 3ac$$a^2 + b^2 + 2ab + 3ac + 3bc + 2c^2 = 3bc + 3ab + 3c^2 + 3ac$Subtracting $3ac + 3bc$ from both sides:$a^2 + b^2 + 2ab + 2c^2 = 3ab + 3c^2$$a^2 + b^2 - c^2 = ab$Using the Law of Cosines,$\cos C = \frac{a^2 + b^2 - c^2}{2ab}$:$\cos C = \frac{ab}{2ab} = \frac{1}{2}$Since $\cos C = \frac{1}{2}$,we have $C = 60^{\circ}$.

In $\triangle ABC$,if $\frac{1}{b+c} + \frac{1}{c+a} = \frac{3}{a+b+c}$,then $C$ is equal to (in $^{\circ}$)
