Correct Answer: $\frac{1}{5}$
Solution : Given: A, B, and C can separately complete a work in 12,15, and 20 days, respectively. Efficiency of A = $\frac{1}{12}$ Efficiency of B = $\frac{1}{15}$ Efficiency of C = $\frac{1}{20}$ 4 days work of A, B, and C = $4×(\frac{1}{12}+\frac{1}{15}+\frac{1}{20})=\frac{4}{5}$ Remaining work = $1–\frac{4}{5}=\frac{1}{5}$ Hence, the correct answer is $\frac{1}{5}$.
