    B)  Rs. 400

    C)  Rs. 600

    D)  Rs. 800

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    A's 1 day's work\[=\frac{1}{6}\] B's 1 day's work \[=\frac{1}{8}\] (A+ B+ C)'s 1 day's Work\[=\frac{1}{3}\] \[\therefore \]C?s 1 day's work \[=\frac{1}{3}-\frac{1}{6}-\frac{1}{8}=\frac{8-4-3}{24}=\frac{1}{24}\] \[\therefore \] Ratio of their one day's work respectively\[=\frac{1}{6}:\frac{1}{8}:\frac{1}{24}=4:3:1\] Sum of the ratios \[=4+3+1=8\] C's share = Rs. \[\frac{1}{8}\times 3200\]= Rs. 400
