1 Answer

  • Answer:

    (i)Together in 10 days

    (ii) They can finish the work individually as:

    a=30 days

    b=60 days

    c=20 days

    Step-by-step explanation:

    one day work of a and b =a+b=1/20

    one day work of b and c =b+c=1/15

    one day work of c and a =c+a=1/12

    adding we get

    a+b+b+c+c+a=1/20+1/15+1/12

    2(a+b+c)=1/60(3+4+5)=12/60=1/5

    a+b+c=1/10

    one day work of a and b and c=1/10

    so the will complete the work together in 10 days

    Now a=(a+b+c)-(b+c)=1/10-1/15=3-2/30=1/30

    b=(a+b+c)-(a+c)=1/10-1/12=6-5/60=1/60

    c=(a+b+c)-(a+b)=1/10-1/20=1/20

    hence they can finish the work individually as:

    a=30 days

    b=60 days

    c=20 days
