The set $S = \{1, 2, 3, \dots, 12\}$ is to be partitioned into three sets $A, B, C$ of equal size such that $A \cup B \cup C = S$ and $A \cap B = B \cap C = C \cap A = \emptyset$. The number of ways to partition $S$ is:

  • A
    $\frac{12!}{(4!)^3}$
  • B
    $\frac{12!}{(4!)^4}$
  • C
    $\frac{12!}{3!(4!)^3}$
  • D
    $\frac{12!}{3!(4!)^4}$
