x can do a piece of work in 16 days and y can do it in 24 days.With the help of z entire work was finished in 6 days.What will be the share of x, if the total compensation is Rs 1100 ?

• answer 412.5
  
  work of x in one day = 1/16
  work of x in 6 days =6/1/16 =3/8
  
  total compensation =1100
  
  amount to be paid to x =1100*3/8 = 412.5

• taking total work to b done is 48
  x alone completes in 16 days so per day 3units of work
  y alone completes in 24 days so per day 2units of work
  with the help of z the entire work is completed in 6 days so z does
  (48-((3+2)*6))= 18units so per day 3 units.
  so the share of x,y,z would be in the ratio 3:2:3
  x's share = ((3/8)*1100) = 412.5
