The correct Answer is:
To find the share of C in the contract work, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Determine the Total Work**: The total contract amount is Rs. 1100. 2. **Identify the Work Done by A and B**: Together, A and B are to do \( \frac{7}{11} \) of the work. 3. **Calculate the Work Done by C**: Since A and B are doing \( \frac{7}{11} \) of the work, C will do the remaining work. The remaining work can be calculated as: \[ \text{Work done by C} = 1 - \frac{7}{11} = \frac{4}{11} \] 4. **Calculate C's Share of the Total Amount**: To find C's share, we need to calculate \( \frac{4}{11} \) of the total amount (Rs. 1100): \[ \text{C's share} = \frac{4}{11} \times 1100 \] 5. **Perform the Calculation**: \[ \text{C's share} = \frac{4 \times 1100}{11} = \frac{4400}{11} = 400 \] 6. **Conclusion**: Therefore, C's share should be Rs. 400. ### Final Answer: C's share is Rs. 400. ---
