IBM Company Numerical Ability Time and Work

A, B and C are employed to do a piece of work for Rs.529. A and B together are supposed to do 19/23 of the work and Band C together 8/23 of the work. What amount should A be paid?
A. Rs.315 B. Rs.345
C. Rs.355 D. Rs.375

Read Solution (Total 2)

b and c=8/23(529)=184
a=a+b+c-(b+c)=529-184=345

Work done by A = (1 - 8/23)
= 15/23
A : (B+C) = (15/23 : 8/23)
= 15 : 8
So, A's share =Rs.(15/23 x 529)
= Rs.345.
