Solution

Let time taken by Atul, Shiva and Sapan together to finish the work = 'x' hours

Time taken by Atul alone to finish the work = (x + 6) years

Time taken by Shiva alone to finish the work = (x + 1) years

Time taken by Sapan alone to finish the work = 2x years

Now,

$$\frac{1}{x + 6} + \frac{1}{x + 1} + \frac{1}{2x} = \frac{1}{x}$$

$$x = \frac{2}{3}$$ hours
