The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to determine the share of Vipul from the total amount of Rs. 2700 based on the work efficiency of Amit, Vipul, and Kapil. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Determine the Work Rates**: - Amit can complete the work in 12 days, so his work rate is \( \frac{1}{12} \) of the work per day. - Vipul can complete the work in 16 days, so his work rate is \( \frac{1}{16} \) of the work per day. - Kapil can complete the work in 24 days, so his work rate is \( \frac{1}{24} \) of the work per day. 2. **Calculate the Least Common Multiple (LCM)**: - To find a common time frame for their work rates, we calculate the LCM of 12, 16, and 24. - The LCM of 12, 16, and 24 is 48. 3. **Calculate the Work Done in 48 Days**: - In 48 days: - Amit would complete \( \frac{48}{12} = 4 \) units of work. - Vipul would complete \( \frac{48}{16} = 3 \) units of work. - Kapil would complete \( \frac{48}{24} = 2 \) units of work. 4. **Calculate Total Work Done**: - Total work done by all three together in 48 days = \( 4 + 3 + 2 = 9 \) units of work. 5. **Determine the Share of Each Worker**: - The total amount to be distributed is Rs. 2700. - The share of Vipul is based on his contribution to the total work. - Vipul's share = \( \frac{\text{Work done by Vipul}}{\text{Total work done}} \times \text{Total amount} \) - Vipul's share = \( \frac{3}{9} \times 2700 \) 6. **Calculate Vipul's Share**: - Vipul's share = \( \frac{1}{3} \times 2700 = 900 \) ### Final Answer: Vipul's share in the amount is Rs. 900. ---
