Answer:
Given A can do the work in 10 days ,B can do the work in 12 days and C can do the work in 15 days.
Then A's one day's work =
10
1
B's one day's work =
12
1
C's one day's work =
15
1
Then (A+B +C)'s one day's work =

(A+B+C)'s two days' work =

×2=
2

But B leaves 3 days before the work gets finished, so C does the remaining work alone
C's 3 days' work =
15

Then work done in 2+3 days =

Work done by B+C together =1−

(B + C)'s one day work =

So number of days worked by B and C together=

=2 days
Then total work done =2+3+2=7 days
