    Answer : Option C.
           side of regular hexagon =1/3 *6 = 2 cm

  7. A and B together can do a work in 10 days. B and C together can do the same work in 6 days. A and C together can do the work in 12 days. Then A, B and C to¬gether can do the work in
    1. 28 days
    2. 14 days
    3. 5 5/7 days
    4. 8 2/7 days

    Answer : Option C.
    (A+B)' 1 day's work = 1/10
    (B+C) 1 day's work = 1/6
    (C+ A) 1 day's work = 1/12
     Adding all three 
       2(A+B+C)' 1 day's work 
    =1/10 + 1/6 + 1/12 = 6+10+5 / 60
