A. Rs. 50
B. Rs. 100
C. Rs. 150
D. Rs. 200
Answer: Option A
Solution(By Examveda Team)
L.C.M. of Total Work = 45One day work of A = $$\frac{{45}}{{5}}$$ = 9 unit/day
One day work of B = $$\frac{{45}}{{15}}$$ = 3 unit/day
One day work of A + B + C = $$\frac{{45}}{{3}}$$ = 15 unit/day
$$\eqalign{ & {\text{Efficiency of C}} \cr & = 15 - \left( {9 + 3} \right) \cr & = 3 \cr & {\text{C's amount}} \cr & = \frac{{250}}{{15}} \times 3 \cr & = {\text{Rs}}{\text{. 50}} \cr} $$
