    Correct Option - 3


    Detailed Solution:

    Let total work is 60 (LCM of 20, 12 & 15)

    Per day work 

    (Raj + Mohan) = 3 units

    (Mohan + Sohan) = 5 units

    (Raj + Shohan) = 4 units

    (Raj + Mohan + Sohan) = (3 + 5 + 4)/2 = 6 units

    Raj's per day work = 6 – 5 = 1 unit

    Total time taken by Raj = 60 days
