A's rate of working is [ 1 job done ] / [ 12 days ], or
+1%2F12+
B's rate of working is [ 1 job done ] / [ 15 days ], or
+1%2F15+
C's rate of working is [ 1 job done ] / [ 24 days ], or
+1%2F24+
--------------------------
What fraction of the job does A get done in +3+ days?
He gets +3%2F12+ of the job done
What fraction of the job does B get done in +15+ days?
He gets +15%2F15+ of the job done
--------------------------------
Something is wrong here- B gets the whole job done and
there is nothing for A or C to do. I think you miscopied
the problem!

A, B, and C can do a JOB in 12, 15, and 24 days, respectively. A does some of a job for 3 days and leaves. After that, B does some of the job for 15 days and he also leaves. In how many days does C perform the rest of this job to complete it?

RT=J is a basic work rates rule relating rate, time, and amount of jobs or job. You usually want to use work rate in the dimensional unit JOB%2FTIME. Your specific unit would be JOB%2FDAY.
