• A can do a piece of work in 3 days while B can do the same work in 4 days. If they work together for a total wages of Rs.2800, how much does A get?
 A) Rs.1200 B) Rs.1900 C) Rs.1300 D) Rs.1600

 D) Rs.1600

##### Description for Correct answer

A's 1 day's work = $$\Large \frac{1}{3}$$

B's 1 day's work = $$\Large \frac{1}{4}$$

A's share : B's share = $$\Large \frac{1}{3}$$ : $$\Large \frac{1}{4}$$

= $$\Large \frac{4}{12}$$ $$\Large \frac{3}{12}$$ = 4 : 3

A's share = $$\Large \frac{4}{7} \times 2800$$

= $$\Large 4 \times 400$$ = Rs.16000
