For some non-zero real values of $$a, b$$ and $$c$$, it is given that $$\mid \frac{c}{a} \mid = 4, \mid \frac{a}{b} \mid = \frac{1}{3}$$ and $$\frac{b}{c} = -\frac{3}{4}$$. If $$ac > 0$$, then $$\left(\frac{b + c}{a}\right)$$
Since the product $$ac$$ is greater than zero, we get that either both $$a$$ and $$c$$ are positive, or both are negative. $$b$$ will have the opposite sign as $$a$$ and $$c$$ because the fraction $$\frac{b}{c}$$ is negative. This gives us the following cases.
Therefore, the correct answer is $$1$$.
