The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to analyze the work done by A, B, and C based on the information provided. Here’s a step-by-step breakdown of the solution: ### Step 1: Define Total Work Assume the total work to be 100%. ### Step 2: Work Done by A and B According to the problem, A and B together do 70% of the work. So, \[ A + B = 70\% \] ### Step 3: Work Done by B and C It is also given that B and C together do 50% of the work. So, \[ B + C = 50\% \] ### Step 4: Calculate Work Done by C To find the work done by C, we can use the total work: \[ C = 100\% - (A + B) = 100\% - 70\% = 30\% \] ### Step 5: Calculate Work Done by B Now that we know C's work, we can find B's work using the equation from Step 3: \[ B + C = 50\% \] Substituting C's value: \[ B + 30\% = 50\% \] Thus, \[ B = 50\% - 30\% = 20\% \] ### Step 6: Calculate Work Done by A Finally, we can find A's work using the equation from Step 2: \[ A + B = 70\% \] Substituting B's value: \[ A + 20\% = 70\% \] Thus, \[ A = 70\% - 20\% = 50\% \] ### Step 7: Compare Work Done Now we have: - A's work = 50% - B's work = 20% - C's work = 30% ### Step 8: Determine the Most Efficient Worker To determine who is the most efficient, we compare the work done: - A has done the most work (50%), followed by C (30%), and then B (20%). ### Conclusion Thus, the most efficient worker is **A**.
