Option B is the correct answer.

Explanatory Answer

Let’s assume total work to be 420 units

 

Anil = 420/60 = 7 units/day

 

Bimal = 420/84 = 5 units /day

 

After 10 days, total work left = 420 -70 = 350

 

Now to do 350 units of work in 14 days, has to work 25 unit per day

 

C’s work= 25-7-5= 13 units a day

 

In term of work    A           B          C
                            168       70       182

 

Profit of C = 182/420 * 21000 = 9100
