Question

A completes a piece of work in 3/4 of time in b does, b takes 4/5 of time in c does.they got a profit of rs.40000 how much does b get

Answer 1

Answer:

12,765

Step-by-step explanation:

Given A completes a piece of work in 3/4 of time in b does, b takes 4/5 of time in c does.they got a profit of rs.40000 how much does b get

Assume C takes 20 days to complete the work.

So B will take 4/5 (20) = 16 days.

So A will take 3/4 (16) = 12 days.

Now let total work = LCM of 20,16,12 = 240

So A’s work will be 240/12 = 20  

    B’s work will be 240/16 = 15

    C’s work will be 240/20 = 12

Now A:B:C = 20:15:12

       15 / 47 x 40000

So B’s share of profit will be Rs 12,765
