    A can do a piece of work in 6 days. B takes 8 days and C takes as long as A and B would take working together. B and C working together will complete the work in

    A) \[2\frac{2}{5}\text{days}\]        

    B) \[2\frac{2}{11}\text{days}\]

    C) \[3\frac{3}{17}\text{days}\]                   

    D) \[3\frac{2}{5}\text{days}\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    (A + B)'s 1 day's work \[=\frac{1}{6}+\frac{1}{8}=\frac{7}{24}\] C'S 1 day's work \[=\frac{7}{24}\] \[\therefore \]  (B + Q)'s 1 day's work             \[=\frac{1}{8}+\frac{7}{24}=\frac{5}{12}\] \[\therefore \] B and C together will complete the work in             \[\frac{12}{5}=2\frac{2}{5}\,\text{days}\]
