The probability of solving a problem by three persons $A, B$ and $C$ independently is $\frac{1}{2}, \frac{1}{4}$ and $\frac{1}{3}$ respectively. Then the probability that the problem is solved by exactly two of them is

  • A
    $\frac{1}{12}$
  • B
    $\frac{1}{4}$
  • C
    $\frac{1}{24}$
  • D
    $\frac{1}{8}$
