  • Question
  • A, B and C get ? 5400 for doing a work in 36 days. A and C get ? 1880 for doing the same work in 20 days, while B and C get ? 3040 for doing the same work in 40 days. Find the amount received by C per day.


  • Options
  • A. ? 50
  • B. ? 25
  • C. ? 30
  • D. ? 20

  • Correct Answer
  • ? 20 

    Explanation

    Amount received by ( A + B + C) per day
    = 5400/36 = ? 150
    ? A + B + C = ? 150.................(i)
    Similarly, amount received by (A + C) per day
    = 1880/20 = ? 94
    ? A + C = ? 94 ........................(ii)
    Amount received by (B + C) per day
    = 3040/40 = ? 76
    ? B + C = ? 76 ........................(iii)
    From Eqs. (i) and (iii), we get
    A + 76 = ? 150
    A = 150 - 76 = ? 74
    By putting the value of A in Eq. (ii), we get
    74 + C = ? 94
    ? C = 94 - 74 = ? 20
    Hence, amount received by C per day
    = ? 20
