Correct option is B
Given:
W and X together = 40 days
X and Y together = 60 days
W, X, and Y together = 30 days
Solution:
Total Work = LCM of 40 , 60 and 30 = 120 unit
Efficiency of W and X together = 3 unit per day
Efficiency of X and Y together = 2unit per day
Efficiency of W, X, and Y together = 4 unit per day
Efficiency of W = Efficiency of W, X, and Y - Efficiency of X and Y
Efficiency of W = 4- 2 = 2 unit per day.
Efficiency of Y = Efficiency of W, X, and Y - Efficiency of W and X
Efficiency of Y= 4- 3 = 1 unit per day.
Time taken by W and Y to complete the whole work = 120 /(2+1) = 120/3 = 40 days
