HINTPlease think of the avg access time for a threelevel cache system as an extension of the twolevel system formula. You can try to calculate the avg access time for L and L first and then use that with L to calculate the total avg. You don't need to consider main memory in this case.
Please make sure that you explain how to calculate the average access time for a level cache system. Not just giving a formula but explain how do you come up with the formula
