Answer : 2. "5"
Explanation :
Answer: B) 5 Explanation: Let M, N and O worked together for x days. From the given data,M alone worked for 8 daysM,N,O worked for x daysN, O worked for 1 day But given thatM alone can complete the work in 18 daysN alone can complete the work in 36 daysO alone can complete the work in 54 days The total work can be the LCM of 18, 6, 54 = 108 units M's 1 day work = 108/18 = 6 unitsN's 1 day work = 108/36 = 3 unitsO's 1 day work = 108/54 = 2 units Now, the equation is8 x 6 + 11x + 5 x 1 = 10848 + 11x + 5 = 10811x = 103 - 4811x = 55x = 5 days. Hence, all M,N and O together worked for 5 days.
