Answer:
answer is 12
Step-by-step explanation:
A can do the work in 20 days
⇒ 1 day = 1/20 of the work
B can do the work in 15 days
⇒ 1 day = 1/15 of the work
Find the amount of work A and B can complete in a day:
1 day = 1/20 + 1/15 = 7/60
Find the amount of work c can complete in a day:
a + b + c can complete the work in 5 days
⇒ 1 day = 1/5 of the work
C alone
⇒ 1 day = 1/5 - 7/60 = 1/12
Find number of days c needs to complete the work:
1/12 of the work = 1 day
12/12 of the work = 1 x 12 = 12 days
