Machine A can process 6000 envelopes in 3 hours. Machines B and C working together but independently can process the same number of envelopes in 2.5 hours. If Machines A and C working together but independently process 3000 envelopes in 1 hour, then how many hours would it take Machine B to process 4200 envelopes.	Choices.
A) 2  B) 3  C) 4  D) 6  E) 60 / 7

Rationale: "you can either take the amount of work done as the same as karishma has done or take the work done by each in the same time . i will do the latter 1 . work done in 1 hr by a is 2000 envelopes 2 . work done in 1 hr by a and c is 3000 envelopes 3 . so work done in 1 hr by c is 1000 envelopes 4 . work done in 1 hr by b and c is 2400 envelopes 5 . so work done in 1 hr by b is 1400 envelopes 6 . so to process 4200 envelopes b will take 4200 / 1400 hrs = 3 hrs so the answer is choice b"
Answer: B
