given, nA = nB = nC  =  0.2
   mole fraction of A = nA÷nA+nB+nC =0.2÷0.2+0.2+0.2
                                = 0.2÷0.6=1/3
mole fraction of A =B=C= 1/3

Sum of mole fraction of all constituent of a mixture is always 1. No matter how many constituents are given and no matter their individual no of moles, if sum of all mole fractions is asked it is always one.

DEAR STUDENT,
MOLE FRACTION OF N NO. OF COMPOUNDS TOGETHER ALWAYS ADD UP TO 1
HERE moles of a,b and c = NA=NB=NC=0.2
MOLEFRACTIONS OF ALL THE THREE= 0.2/0.2+0.2+0.2= 1/3
SUM OF MOLE FRACTIONS OF ALL= 3(1/3)= 1
