Answer

$6.8\times 10^5\frac{N.m^2}{C}$

Work Step by Step

We can find the electric flux as $\phi=\frac{q}{\epsilon{\circ}}$ $\implies \phi=\frac{q_1+q_2+q_3}{\epsilon_{\circ}}$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $\phi=\frac{(3.2+6.9-4.1)\times 10^{-6}}{8.85\times 10^{-12}}$ $\phi=6.8\times 10^5\frac{N.m^2}{C}$
