    A)  100 days

    B)  150 days

    C)  60 days           

    D)  80 days

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    [c] (X + Y)?s one day work \[=\frac{1}{72}\] (Y + Z)?s one day work \[=\frac{1}{120}\] (Z+X)?s one day work \[=\frac{1}{90}\] \[\therefore \,\] 2 ( X+Y+Z )?s one day work\[=\frac{1}{72}+\frac{1}{120}+\frac{1}{90}\] \[=\frac{5+3+4}{360}=\frac{12}{360}=\frac{1}{30}\] \[\therefore \,\] (X + Y + Z)?s one day work\[=\frac{1}{2}\times \frac{1}{30}=\frac{1}{60}\] \[\therefore \,\] They will complete the work in 60 days.
