A, B and C, each working alone can complete a job in 6, 8 and 12 days respectively. If all three of them work together to complete a job and earn $ 1170, what will be B's share of the earnings?	Choose the correct choice from the following answers
A) $ 390
B) $ 520
C) $ 1080
D) $ 1170
E) $ 630

Rationale: "explanatory answer a , b and c will share the amount of $ 1170 in the ratio of the amounts of work done by them . as a takes 6 days to complete the job , if a works alone , a will be able to complete 1 / 6 th of the work in a day . similarly , b will complete 1 / 8 th and c will complete 1 / 12 th of the work . so , the ratio of the work done by a : b : c when they work together will be equal to 1 / 6 : 1 / 8 : 1 / 12 multiplying the numerator of all 3 fractions by 24 , the lcm of 6 , 8 and 12 will not change the relative values of the three values . we get 24 / 6 : 24 / 8 : 24 / 12 = 4 : 3 : 2 . i . e . , the ratio in which a : b : c will share $ 1170 will be 4 : 3 : 2 . hence , b ' s share will be 3 * 1170 / 9 = 390 . correct choice is ( a )"
Answer: A
