Answer: Option B

Solution(By Examveda Team)

$$\eqalign{ & 3 \times V = 2 \times K \cr & \frac{V}{K} = \frac{2}{3} = \frac{{10}}{{15}} \cr & 4 \times K = D \times 5 \cr & \frac{K}{D} = \frac{5}{4} = \frac{{15}}{{12}} \cr & {\text{Total work}} = 48 \times \left( {10 + 15 + 12} \right) \cr & {\text{Time of Dinesh}} = \left( {\frac{{48 \times 37}}{{12}}} \right) = 148{\text{ hr}} \cr} $$
