उत्तर

A and B can do a work in = 8 days

B and C can do a work in = 12 days

A and C can do a work in = 16 days

(A+B)’s 1-day work =`1/8`

(B+C)’s 1-day work =`1/12`

(A+C)'s 1-day work =`1/16`

∴ [(A+B)+(B+C)+(A+C)]'s 1 day work

`=1/8+1/12+1/16`

i.e. [A+B+B+C+A+C]'s 1 day work

`=1/8+1/12+1/16`

`=(6+4+3)/48=13/48`

i.e. 2(A+B+C)'s 1-day work =`13/48`

i.e. (A+B+C)'s 1-day work =`13/48xx1/2=13/96`

∴ (A+B+C) can do the work in =`96/13`days

`=7 5/13` days
