Three factories of Conglomerate Corporation are capable of manufacturing hubcaps. Two of the factories can each produce 1000 hubcaps in 15 days. The third factory can produce hubcaps 30% faster. Approximately how many days would it take to produce a 10,000 hubcaps with all three factories working simultaneously?
Pick one
A) 38	B) 42	C) 46	D) 50	E) 54
since third factory is 30% faster , thus it will create 1300 hubcaps in 15 days   in 15 days total number of hubcaps made by all three will be :   1000+1000+1300=

3300   in 30 days:   3300+3300=

6600   in 45 days:   6600+3300= 
<gadget id="calculator">6600+3300</gadget>
<output>9_900</output>
9900   now only 100 more hubcaps are required , which will take 1 day   thus in all 46 days.   Ans:46
