Answer:

C will take 96 days alone to do the work.

Step-by-step explanation:

given,

A and B work for 12 days...................(1)

B and C work for 16 days...................(2)

C and A work for 24 days...................(3)

Adding equation (1) and (2)


A + 2 B + C = (1)/(12)+(1)/(16)\\2 B + (1)/(24)=(1)/(12)+(1)/(16)\\2B =(1)/(12)+(1)/(16)-(1)/(24)\\B=(5)/(96)

from equation (2)


B+C = (1)/(16)\\(5)/(96)+C = (1)/(16)\\C=(1)/(16)-(5)/(96)\\C=(1)/(96)

hence, C will take 96 days alone to do the work.
