Thank you for asking this question, here is your answer:
Abbot's one day work is equal to 1/10
Bill's one day work is equal to 1/20
Clinton's one day work is equal to 1/40
1/10+1/20+1/40 is equal to the 3 day work
(8+4+2)*5/80=3*5 day
The work which is left = 1-7/8
= 1/8
1/8-1/10 = work left =1/40
day = 15+1
Next day is equal to 1/40-1/20
(1/40)/(1/20) = 1/2
Total day is equal to 16.5 Days
