    TIME AND WORK :

    1. If A can finish work in X time and B can finish work in Y time


    then both together can finish work in (X*Y)/ (X+Y) time.
    2. If A can finish work in X time and A and B together can finish
    work in S time then B can finish work in (XS)/(X-S) time.
    3. If A can finish work in X time and B in Y time and C in Z time
    then they all working together will finish the work in
    (XYZ)/ (XY +YZ +XZ) time
    4. If A can finish work in X time and B in Y time and A,B and C
    together in S time then :
    C can finish work alone in (XYS)/ (XY-SX-SY)
    B+C can finish in (SX)/(X-S)
    and A+ C can finish in (SY)/(Y-S)
