Part of the work done by Khaleesi = (1/15 × 6) = 2/5
Part of the work done by John Snow = (1/12 × 6) = 1/2
Part of the work done by Cersi = 1 – (1/2 + 2/5) = 1/10
∴, (Khaleesi’s share) : ( John’s share) : (Cersi’s share) = 2/5 : ½ : 1/10 = 4 : 5 : 1
∴ Khaleesi’s share = (4/10 × 2400) = Rs.960
John’s share = (5/10 × 2400) = Rs.1200
Cersi’s share = (1/10 × 2400) = Rs.240
Now, Khaleesi’s daily wages = Rs. (960/6) = Rs.160
John’s daily wages = Rs. (1200/6) = Rs.200
Cersi’s daily wages = Rs. (240/4) = Rs.60
∴ Daily wages of john and cersi are (60 + 200) Rs.260.
