  • A 300
  • B 400
  • C 200
  • D 600
Correct Answer: Option B

Explanation

The work rate of C is 1/24 of the task per day,
while the work rate of A is 1/6 of the task per day and the work rate of B is 1/8 of the task per day.
The ratio of their wages is 4:3:1,
with C receiving a 1/8 share.
Therefore, C's share of the total cost of Rs. 3200 for completing the task in 3 days is Rs. 400.
