Best answer

Number of days A required do a piece of work : 10 

Number of days B required do a piece of work : 12 

Number of days C required do a piece of work : 15

Work done by A in one day: \(\frac{1}{10}\)

Work done by C in one day: \(\frac{1}{12}\)

Work done by C in one day: \(\frac{1}{15}\)

Work done by A, B and C together in one day: \(\frac{1}{10}+\frac{1}{12}+\frac{1}{15}=\frac{15}{60}=\frac{1}{4}\)

∴ They can do the work together in 4 days .
