Correct Answer: 36
Solution : Given: A and B alone can do the same work in 36 days. Let the total work = LCM of (12, 36, 36) = 36 units Efficiency of A $=\frac{36}{36} = 1$ unit per day Efficiency of B $=\frac{36}{36} = 1$ unit per day Efficiency of A, B, and C together $\frac{36}{12} = 3$ units per day Now, the efficiency of C = 3 – 1 – 1 = 1 unit per day Then, the time C takes to complete the whole task alone is $\frac{36}{1} = 36$ days Hence, the correct answer is 36.
