    Answer : Option A

    Explanation :

    A's one day work =Apti Time and work 56

    B's one day work =Apti Time and work 57

    C's one day work =Apti Time and work 58

    (A+B+C)'s one day work =Apti Time and work 59

    Work done in three days will be the sum of A's two-day work and (A+B+C)'s one day work.

    A's two-day work =Apti Time and work 60

    Therefore, the work is done in three days =Apti Time and work 61

    3/8 part of the job is done in 3 days.

    The entire job will be done by A in = 3 x Apti Time and work 62
