A and B can do a piece of work in 30 days , while B and C can do the same work in 24 days and C and A in 20 days . They all work together for 10 days when B and C leave. How many days more will A take to finish the work?

Correct Answer: 18 days

2(A+B+C)'s 1 day work = 1/30 + 1/24 + 1/20 = 1/8

=>(A+B+C)'s  1 day's work= 1/16

work done by A,B and C in 10 days=10/16 = 5/8

Remaining work= 3/8

A's 1 day's work= 116-124=148

Now, 1/48 work is done by A in 1 day.

 So, 3/8 work  wil be done by A in =48 x (3/8) = 18 days
