A can finish a work in 24 days, B in 9 days and C in 12 days. B and C start the work but are forced to leave after 3 days. The remaining work was done by A in:

Correct Answer: 10 days

Explanation:


(B + C)'s 1 day's work = 1 + 1 = 7 .
9 12 36



Work done by B and C in 3 days = 7 x 3 = 7 .
36 12



Remaining work = 1 - 7 = 5 .
12 12



Now, 1 work is done by A in 1 day.
24



So, 5 work is done by A in 24 x 5 = 10 days.
12 12
