Q:
A can do a piece of work in 10 days, B in 15 days. They work together for 5 days, the rest of the work is finished by C in two more days. If they get Rs. 3000 as wages for the whole work, what are the daily wages of A, B and C respectively (in Rs):
Answer & Explanation
Answer: B) 300, 200, 250
Explanation: A's 5 days work = 50%
B's 5 days work = 33.33%
C's 2 days work = 16.66% [100- (50+33.33)]
Ratio of contribution of work of A, B and C = = 3 : 2 : 1
A's total share = Rs. 1500
B's total share = Rs. 1000
C's total share = Rs. 500
A's one day's earning = Rs.300
B's one day's earning = Rs.200
C's one day's earning = Rs.250
