Answer : 3. "[6 + (261/315)] days"
Explanation :

Answer: C) [6 + (261/315)] days Explanation: After day 1, A finishes 1/9 of the work. After day 2, B finishes 1/7 more of the total work. (1/9) + (1/7) is finished. After day 3, C finishes 1/5 more of total work. Total finished is 143/315. So, after day 6, total work finished is 286/315.   Now remaining work =  29 /315   On day 7, A will work again    Work will be completed on day 7 when A is working. He must finish 29/315 of total remaining work.   Since he takes 9 days to finish the total task, he will need 261/315 of the day.    Total days required is 6 + (261/315) days.

Answer : 2. "7"
Explanation :

Answer: B) 7 Explanation: NASA announced a Seven new system of Exoplanets, which are Earth-size, and could potentially hold life.These exoplanets are located outside of our solar system and orbit a star. NASA has named the system of planets after the ‘Transiting Planets and Planetesimals Small Telescope,’ which is located in Chile. This telescope first discovered three of the planets in this system in May 2016. Unlike Earth, which rotates on its axis, the planets are “tidally locked to the star.” This means that one side of the planet has only day, and one side has only night. It also means the weather conditions are unlike what we experience on Earth.
