    D 12 days Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Let total amount of work = 90 units (LCM of 30 and 45) Work done by Riya in one day = 90 / 30 = 3 units Work done by Mehul in one day = 90 / 45 = 2 units Combined = 3 + 2 = 5 units Kabir’s efficiency = 1.2 × 5 = 6 units/day Time taken by Kabir = 90 / 6 = 15 days
