Correct Answer: INR 3,450
Solution : Part of work done by A and B together = $\frac{19}{23}$ of total work Part of work done by B and C together = $\frac{8}{23}$ of total work Part of the work done by A alone = Total work – Part of work done by B and C together = (1 – $\frac{8}{23}$ ) of total work = $\frac{15}{23}$ of total work Total wages = INR 5,290 So, the wage of A = $\frac{15}{23}$ × 5290 = INR 3,450 Hence, the correct answer is INR 3,450.
