    Explanation

    As per question, work of A for 1 day = 1/12 and work of B for 1 day = 1/8
    ? Work of (A + B) together for 1 day = 1/12 + 1/8 = (2 + 3)/24 = 5/24
    ? Work of (A + B) together for 3 days = 3 x (5/24) = 5/8
    ? Remaining work after 3 days = 1 - 5/8 = 3/8
    ? C can do the same work in = 4/5th time required by (A + B) = 4/5 x 24/5 = 96/25 days
    ? Work of C for 1 day = 25/96 part.
    ? 25/96 part work can be done by C in 1 day
    ? 3/8 part work can be done by C in = 96/25 x 3/8 days = 36/25 days = 111/25
