- (A+B+C)'s 1 Day work = (1/24+1/32+1/60) ;- LCM of 1/24 + 1/32 + 1/60 is (20+15+8)/480
= 43/480
A left after 6 days means = 6*(43/480) = 258/480
B left after 8 days means here 6 days already worked with A so only 2 days extra worked compared to A
i.e.. 2(1/32+1/60) = 2(15+8)/480 = 46/480
remaining work = 1-[(258/480)+(46/480)]
= 1-[304/480]
= 1-[19/30]
= 11/30
C can do 11/30 remaining work
C's 1 Day work = 1/60
11/30 can complete in (11/30)*60 = 22 Days - 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(11) No(2)
- 6day=6*(43/480)=43/80
8day =8*(23/480)=23/60
total 14 day=43/80+23/60=221/240
remaining work=1-221/240=19/240
c will do=19/240-1/60=1/8
so,c will take 8 days
total=8+6+8=22days
- 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(5)
