A,B and C can do a piece of work in 4 days, 5 days and 7 days respectively. They get ₹ 415 for completing the job. If A, B and C have worked together to complete the job, what is A's share?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Since they work for the same number of days, the ratio in which they share the money is the ratio of work done per day.
i.e. `1//4:1//5:1//7=35:28:20` Hence A's share is `(38/83)xx415=₹ 175`.
