Their combined rate is 1/12 + 1/18 + 1/36 = 1/6.
Therefore, they finish in 6 days.
Choose an option to check your answer.
Let B's rate be 2 units and A's rate be 3 units, total 5 units.
If 5 units finish in 6 days, B alone takes 6 × 5/2 = 15 days.

Their daily rate is 1/16 + 1/24 = 5/48.
In 4 days they do 5/12, so 7/12 remains.

Rate = SI × 100 ÷ (P × T).
Thus, 800 × 100 ÷ (4,000 × 5) = 4%.

Daily work equals total work divided by the number of days.
Thus, A's one-day work is 1/12.

The amount is 8,000 × 1.05² = Rs. 8,820.
Subtracting the principal gives compound interest of Rs. 820.

For two years, the difference is P(r/100)².
So 10,000 × 0.1² = Rs. 100.

Doubling means interest equal to the principal is earned in 8 years.
Tripling requires interest equal to twice the principal, so it takes 16 years.

One-year compound amount is principal plus 12% interest.
Thus, 20,000 × 1.12 = Rs. 22,400.
