hartnn (hartnn):

let 'n' be days required to complete the work. how much work will A complete in one day ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1 / 10

hartnn (hartnn):

so, we have then doing work alternately, in three days they all will work once, so, each will work for n/3 days, right ? total work =1 so, could you get now, how i got this equation ? n/3 (1/10 + 1/12+1/15) =1

A does 1/10 of a job per day. B does 1/12 of a job, and c does 1/15 of a job. Adding those up says that you get .25 of the job done by these guys in 3 days. You should be able to take it from there... :-)

hartnn (hartnn):
