Explanation / Answer

here,

C2 = 10 pF and C3 = 11 pF

A)

C2 and C3 are in parallel,

the equivalent capacitance between b and c , Cbc = C2 + C3

Cbc = 21 pF

B)

Cbc and C1 are in series ,

the equivalent capacitance between a and c , Cac = Cbc * C1 /( Cbc + C1)

Cac = 21 * 10 /( 21 + 10) pF

Cac =6.77 pF
