LCM of 50, 75,and 20 is 600 not 360

Question:

     A, B and C can do a job working alone in 50, 75 and 20 days respectively. They all work together for 4 days, then C quits. How many days will A and B take to finish the rest of the job? 

Options:
A)

     20

B)

     30

C)

     18

D)

     24

Solution:

      Let total work be 360 units. (LCM of 50,75,20)

  

Work done by ABC in 4 days =  4×6+4+15=100units   

Remaining Work = 300 – 100 = 200 units

Time taken by AB to complete 200 units =  2006+4=20days
