Correct Answer: $3 \frac{9}{37}$ hours
Solution : One day work of Rashi = $\frac{1}{10}$ One day work of Gopi = $\frac{1}{8}$ One day work of Manju = $\frac{1}{12}$ So, one day work of all the three $=\frac{1}{10} + \frac{1}{8} + \frac{1}{12} = \frac{12}{120} + \frac{15}{120} + \frac{10}{120} = \frac{37}{120}$ ⇒ Time taken by all the three if working together $=\frac{120}{37} = 3 \frac{9}{37}$ hours Hence, the correct answer is $3\frac{9}{37}$ hours.
