- Z₁, Z₂, and Z₃ work for different days with a daily wage ratio of 3:4:4.

- Total wages paid are Rs 4,960 for all three combined.

- Let's find the combined share of Z₂ and Z₃:

1. Calculate the individual wages:

- Wages depend on daily work and daily wage.

- Assume daily wages of Z₁, Z₂, and Z₃ as 3x, 4x, and 4x.

- Total earnings: Z₁ = 8 * 3x = 24x, Z₂ = 10 * 4x = 40x, Z₃ = 15 * 4x = 60x.

- Total wages: 24x + 40x + 60x = 124x.

- 124x = 4,960 => x = 40.

2. Calculate combined share of Z₂ and Z₃:

- Combined earnings: Z₂ (40x) + Z₃ (60x) = 100x.

- 100x = 100 * 40 = Rs 4,000.

- Option 2 is Rs 4,000.
