Correct Answer: 4 days
Solution : 1 day's work of A = $\frac{1}{9}$ 1 day's work of B = $\frac{1}{12}$ 1 day's work of A = $\frac{1}{18}$ 1 day's work of (A + B + C) $=\frac{1}{9}+\frac{1}{12}+\frac{1}{18}=\frac{4+3+2}{36}=\frac{9}{36}$ $\therefore$ So they can complete the whole work in $\frac{36}{9}$ = 4 days Hence, the correct answer is 4 days.
