A, B and C can do of a work in days, days and days, respectively. They began the work together but A left days before the completion of the work. In how many days was the work completed?

  1. A
  2. B
  3. C
  4. D

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

If they can complete of the work in the given days, then the time required to complete of the work is double:
* Time taken by A = days
* Time taken by B = days
* Time taken by C = days

Let the total work be the of :


Now, compute individual efficiencies per day:
* Efficiency of A =
* Efficiency of B =
* Efficiency of C =

Let the total time taken to complete the work be days.
* A worked for days.
* B and C worked for the entire days.

Set up the equation based on work done:
