Solution

We have,

A = set of multiples of 5 = {5, 10, 15, ...};  

B = set of multiples of 7 = {7, 14, 21, ...}; and 

C = set of multiples of 12 = {12, 24, 36, ...} 

The universal set for the sets A, B and C can be a set of natural numbers, i.e. N.

Disclaimer: The Universal set for the sets A, B and C can be set of whole numbers, integers, rational numbers of real numbers and so on.
