Q10. X takes twice as much time as Y to complete a work and Z does it in the same time as X and Y together. If all three working together can finish the work in 6 days then what is the time taken by X, Y and Z respectively?
Answer : Option D
Explaination / Solution:

Let 2T days and T days be the time taken to complete the work by X and Y respectively. 
 1/2T and 1/T be the work done in 1 day by X and Y respectively. 
 1/2T + 1/T= 3/2T be the total work done by X and Y together in 1 day. 
 2T/3 days be the time taken by Z to complete the work. 
According to the question, 
1/T + 1/2T + 3/2T = 1/6
Or, T = 18 days 
2T = 36 days and 2T/3 = 12 days
