A manager is one who has the expertise to manage tasks properly.So, it becomes his prime responsibility to rearrange his work schedule properly and work out the required time for the project rather than postpone it or hand it over to some one else.

One day's work of A, B and C = (1/24 + 1/30 + 1/40) = 1/10.

C leaves 4 days before completion of the work, which means only A and B work during the last 4 days.

Work done by A and B together in the last 4 days = 4 (1/24 + 1/30) = 3/10.

Remaining Work = 7/10, which was done by A,B and C in the initial number of days. 

Number of days required for this initial work = 7 days. 

Thus, the total numbers of days required = 4 + 7 = 11 days.

Work donee by A and B in the first two hours, working alternatively = First hour A + Second hour B = (1/4) + (1/12) = 1/3.

Thus, the total time required to complete the work  = 2 (3) = 6 days 

If we want to pack the drinks in the least number of cans possible, then each can should contain the maximum numbers of liters possible.As each can contains the same number liters of a drink, the number of liters in each can is a comman factor for 80,144 and 368; and it is also the highest such factor, as we need to store the maximum number of liters in each can.

So, the number of liters in each can  = HCF of 80,144 and 368 = 16 liters.

Now, number of cans of Maaza = 80/16 = 5

Number of cans of Pepsi = 144/16 = 9

Number of cans of Sprite = 368/16 = 23

Thus, the total number of cans required = 5 + 9 + 23 = 37 

Let us calculate both the length and width of the room in centimeters.

Length = 6 meters and 24 centimeters = 624 cm

width = 4 meters and 32 centimeters = 432 cm

As we want the least number of square tiles required, it means the length of each square tile should be as large as possible.Further,the length of each square tile should be a factor of both the length and width of the room.

Hence, the length of each square tile will be equal to the HCF of the length and width of the room = HCF of 624 and 432 = 48

Thus, the number of square tiles required = (624 x 432 ) / (48 x 48) = 13 x 9 = 117

A runs 1000 meters while B runs 900 meters and C runs 800 meters.

Therefore, B runs 900 meters while C runs 800 meters.

So, the number of meters that C runs when B runs 1000 meters = (1000 x 800)/900 = 8000/9 = 888.88 meters

Thus, B can give C (1000 - 888.88) = 111.12 meters start

 As 12 men can reap 120 acres, 54 men will be able to reap more acres in 36 days, 120 acres of land was reaped, so in 54 days, more land will be reaped.

Thus, the numbers of acres that can be reaped by 54 men in 54 days = 5412x120x5436 = 810 acres
