To do a certain work, the ratio of the efficiencies of A, B and C is 7 : 5 : 6. Working together, they can complete the same work in 35 days. B and C work together for 21 days. The remaining work will be completed by A alone in:
the ratio of the efficiencies of A, B and C is 7 : 5 : 6
(A+B+C)' s working together can complete the work in 35 days isÂ
= $$\frac{1}{xĂ·7}$$+Â $$\frac{1}{xĂ·5}$$+Â $$\frac{1}{xĂ·6}$$ =Â $$\frac{1}{35}$$
=Â $$\frac{7}{x}$$ +Â $$\frac{5}{x}$$ +Â $$\frac{6}{x}$$ =Â $$\frac{1}{35}$$
 $$\frac{18}{x}$$ = $$\frac{1}{35}$$
x=630
B work is =Â $$\frac{5}{x}$$ =Â $$\frac{5}{630}$$ =Â $$\frac{1}{126}$$
C work is =Â $$\frac{6}{x}$$ =Â $$\frac{6}{630}$$ =Â $$\frac{1}{105}$$
(B+C)' 1 days work =Â $$\frac{1}{126}$$+Â $$\frac{1}{105}$$
Take the orderes of 105 and 126 is 630 hence
=Â $$\frac{5+6}{630}$$Â
=Â $$\frac{11}{630}$$
21 days work of (B+C) =Â $$\frac{11}{630}$$ Ă—21
=Â $$\frac{11}{30}$$
Remaining work = 1-Â $$\frac{11}{30}$$
Remaining work =Â $$\frac{19}{30}$$
A's 1 days work =Â $$\frac{7}{x}$$ =Â $$\frac{7}{630}$$ =Â $$\frac{1}{90}$$
A's 1 days work =Â $$\frac{1}{90}$$
The remaining work will be completed by A alone in =Â $$\frac{19}{30}$$ Ă—90
y=57 days
