JEE Main 6 September 2020, Shift 2, Maths Q68

Question 68 of 75 in this shift, Maths question 18 of 25.

The probabilities of three events A, B and C are given by P(A)=0.6P(A)=0.6, P(B)=0.4P(B)=0.4 and P(C)=0.5P(C)=0.5. If P(A∪B)=0.8P(A\cup B)=0.8, P(A∩C)=0.3P(A\cap C)=0.3, P(A∩B∩C)=0.2P(A\cap B\cap C)=0.2, P(B∩C)=βP(B\cap C)=\beta and P(A∪B∪C)=αP(A\cup B\cup C)=\alpha, where 0.85≤α≤0.950.85\le\alpha\le0.95, then β\beta lies in the interval :
