A , B and C
-
- 200 , 200 , 200
- 200 , 250 ,150
- 200 , 150 , 250
- 150 , 200 , 250
Correct Option: C
Given :- A's one day work = | |
15 |
B's one day work = | |
20 |
C’s one day’s work = 1/5 - (1/15 + 1/20) = 5/60.
C's one day work = | |
12 |
Thus the ratio of efficiencies of A, B and C is 1/15 : 1/20 : 1/12 = 4 : 3 : 5
∴ A ’s share = | × 600 = ₹ 200 | ||
12 |
B ’s share = | × 600 = ₹ 150 | ||
12 |
And C ’s share = | × 600 = ₹ 250 | ||
