SSC GD 2026 PYQ — Question 54

SSC GD Constable - 4 May 2026 - Shift 2 • Quantitative Aptitude • Q54

A, B and C working alone can complete a work in 9, 12 and 18 days respectively. In how many days A, B and C together can complete the same work?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

A's work in 1 day = 1/9

B's work in 1 day = 1/12

C's work in 1 day = 1/18

Combined work of all three in 1 day = 1/9 + 1/12 + 1/18

= (4 + 3 + 2) / 36

= 9/36

= 1/4

Therefore, time taken to complete the entire work = 4 days
