You can put this solution on YOUR website! A piece of work can be done by A,B and C working together in 4 days. it can also be finished if A works 2 days; B, 7 days; and C for 5 days. How long will it take each of them to finish the work?
Either you stated the problem wrong or else you're telling the answer
in the problem.
You ask:
How long will it take each of them to finish the work?
Then you tell us:
it can also be finished if A works 2 days; B, 7 days; and C for 5 days.
So the answer to this:
How long will it take A to finish the work?
is of course 2 days.
The answer to this:
How long will it take B to finish the work?
is of course 7 days.
And the answer to this:
How long will it take C to finish the work?
is of course 5 days.
I'm sure you didn't mean to give the answer in the problem.
Please copy it correctly and resubmit it.
