Answer»

Solution

A did the WORK for 20 days, B did the work for (20 + 12 + 38) = 60 days, C did the work for 28 days.

Let C alone can complete the work in X days.

Fraction of work did by A + Fraction of work did by B + Fraction of work did by C = 1

Or 20/80+60/120+28/x=1

Or x=28×4 = 112 days

C alone can complete the work in 112 days
