    A, B and C can complete a piece of work in 24, 6 and 12 days respectively. Working together they will complete the same work in

    A)  \[\frac{1}{24}\]days                 

    B)  \[\frac{7}{24}\]days         

    C)  \[3\frac{3}{7}\]days

    D)  4 days

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    (c): As seen earlier, together they will do in \[\frac{1}{\frac{1}{24}+\frac{1}{6}+\frac{1}{12}}\]days. \[=\frac{1}{\frac{1+4+2}{24}}=\frac{24}{7}\] = \[3\frac{3}{7}\]days.
