    Solution

    ATQ,

    Let the total work = L.C.M of 45, 30, and 60 = 180 units

    Efficiency of Ravi = 180 ÷ 45 = 4 units/day

    Efficiency of Sohan = 180 ÷ 30 = 6 units/day

    Efficiency of Karan = 180 ÷ 60 = 3 units/day

    Work done by Ravi in 9 days = 4 × 9 = 36 units

    Work done by Sohan and Karan = 180 - 36 = 144 units

    So, x = 144 ÷ (6 + 3) = 144 ÷ 9 = 16 days
