TIME AND WORK Q2

A company has a job to prepare certain number cans and there are three machines A, B and C for this job. A can complete the job in 3 days, B can complete the job in 4 days, and C can complete the job in 6 days. How many days will the company take to complete the job if all the machines are used simultaneously?

  a) 4 days

  b) 4/3 days

  c) 3 days

  d) 12 days

If they work together, then total work done in single day = 1 /3 + 1/ 4 + 1/ 6 = 9 /12

So 9 /12 work is done in 1 day

Hence unit work will be done in  12 /9 or 4/3 days.
