SSC CGL Tier II Quant - 11/09/2019 • Quantitative Aptitude • Q23

A and B can do a piece of work in 6 days and 8 days respectively. With the help of C, they complete the work in 3 days and earned Rs1848. What was the share of C ?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct ans is option 1 ie Rs 231.

A = 4 units/day

B = 3 units/day

Time to complete the work with the help of C = 24/x = 3

x = 8

A + B + C’s work = 8

4 + 3 + C’s = 8

C’s = 8 - 7 

C = 1

Share of C = (1/8) × 1848 = 231
