    B Rs 6200 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Rs 6000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Rs 6700 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Let total work = 26 units {LCM of (13 and 26)} Efficiency of ‘A’ = 26/13 = 2 units/day Efficiency of ‘B’ = 26/26 = 1 units/day Wages received by ‘A’ and ‘B’ will directly proportion to their efficiency. So share of ‘B’ = 18000 × (1/3) = Rs 6000
