Explanation:

Correct option 3: Rs. 600

Given:
In a job, L1, L2, and L3 work for 3, 4 and 6 days, respectively.
The ratio of the daily wages of L1, L2 and L3 is 2:3: 1, respectively.
They receive Rs. 2,400 as the total wages.
Now,
The wage amount is already distributed among the workers according to the ratio of their work done.
Solution
So, the final ratio of their wages
=>2×3:3×4:6x1
6:12:6
=>1:2:1
Now, L1's share = 2400 x 1/(1+2+1)= Rs. 600
::. L]s share, is Rs. 600.
