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 is
= $$\frac{1}{x÷7}$$+ $$\frac{1}{x÷5}$$+ $$\frac{1}{x÷6}$$ = $$\frac{1}{35}$$
= $$\frac{7}{x}$$ + $$\frac{5}{x}$$ + $$\frac{6}{x}$$ = $$\frac{1}{35}$$
$$\frac{18}{x}$$ = $$\frac{1}{35}$$
x=630
B work is = $$\frac{5}{x}$$ = $$\frac{5}{630}$$ = $$\frac{1}{126}$$
C work is = $$\frac{6}{x}$$ = $$\frac{6}{630}$$ = $$\frac{1}{105}$$
(B+C)' 1 days work = $$\frac{1}{126}$$+ $$\frac{1}{105}$$
Take the orderes of 105 and 126 is 630 hence
= $$\frac{5+6}{630}$$
= $$\frac{11}{630}$$
21 days work of (B+C) = $$\frac{11}{630}$$ ×21
= $$\frac{11}{30}$$
Remaining work = 1- $$\frac{11}{30}$$
Remaining work = $$\frac{19}{30}$$
A's 1 days work = $$\frac{7}{x}$$ = $$\frac{7}{630}$$ = $$\frac{1}{90}$$
A's 1 days work = $$\frac{1}{90}$$
The remaining work will be completed by A alone in = $$\frac{19}{30}$$ ×90
y=57 days
