From the given data,

12 children 16 days work,
One child’s one day work = 1/192.

8 adults 12 days work,
One adult’s one day’s work = 1/96.

Work done in 3 days = ((1/96) x 16 x 3) = 1/2

Remaining work = 1 – 1/2 = 1/2

(6 adults+ 4 children)’s 1 day’s work = 6/96 + 4/192 = 1/12

1/12 work is done by them in 1 day.

1/2 work is done by them in 12 x (1/2) = 6 days.

Given total sum = Rs. 427
And given that 3 times A’s share, 4 times B’s share and 7 times C’s share are all equal.
=> 3A = 4B = 7C
But given
=> A + B + C = 427
Now express A and B in terms of C i.e
=> (7C/3) + (7C/4) + C = 427
=> C = 84
