SUMMARY
The formula for calculating P(A ∪ B ∪ C) is correctly derived using the Principle of Inclusion-Exclusion. This principle provides a systematic method for finding the probability of the union of multiple events by accounting for overlaps. The discussion confirms the validity of the formula presented and references the Wikipedia page on Inclusion-Exclusion for further details.
