Detailed Text Solution

A can do 2/5 of the work in 6 days

A can complete the whole work
= 6 × 5/2
= 15 days

B can do 2/3 of the work in 12 days

B can complete the whole work
= 12 × 3/2
= 18 days

Total work = 90

Work done by A and B in 6 days
= (6 + 5) × 6
= 11 × 6
= 66

Remaining work
= 90 − 66
= 24

Let efficiency of C be = x

Work done by C in 8 days
= 8x

So,
8x = 24
x = 3

∴ Efficiency of C = 3

Efficiency of A = 6
Efficiency of C = 3

A and C together efficiency = 6 + 3 = 9

Time taken by A and C to complete the work
= 90 / 9
= 10 days
