    The point of intersection CC of the plane 8x+y+2z=08x+y+2z=0 and the line joining the points A(−3,−6,1)A(-3,-6,1) and B(2,−4,−3)B(2,-4,-3) divides the line segment ABAB internally in the ratio 14:314:3. If a,b,ca,b,c (where ∣a∣,∣b∣,∣c∣|a|,|b|,|c| are coprime) are the direction ratios of the perpendicular from the point CC on the line 1−x1=y+42=z+23\frac{1-x}{1}=\frac{y+4}{2}=\frac{z+2}{3}, then ∣a+b+c∣|a+b+c| is equal to
