Biology

Genes A and B are located 10cM from each other on achromosome. Gene C is located 25cM from gene A and 15cM from geneB. Assuming that I = 0, what is the probability that the trihybridABC/abc will produce an ABC gamete?

I get that ABC is a result of a double crossover. A similarquestion was answered and said that

Probability of SCO - DCO = 0.25 - 0.015 = 0.235

PLEASE EXPLAIN HOW YOU GET .25 and .015. Please do not say thatit's SCO and DCO actually please explain Did they get that SCO is.25 because that's A to C, and did they say .015 because that'sdistance from C to B and B to A? Please I am very confused.Thanks.
