A, B and C can do a piece of work in 24 days, 30 days and 40 days respectively. They began the work together but C left 4 days before the completion of the work. In how many days was the work completed? A. 10 B. 11 C. 12 D. 13 Answer Workspace Report Discuss Answer with explanation Answer: Option B Explanation One day’s work of A, B and C = (1/24 + 1/30 + 1/40) = 1/10. C leaves 4 days before completion of the work, which means only A and B work during the last 4 days. Work done by A and B together in the last 4 days = 4 (1/24 + 1/30) = 3/10. Remaining Work = 7/10, which was done by A,B and C in the initial number of days. Number of days required for this initial work = 7 days. Thus, the total numbers of days required = 4 + 7 = 11 days.
