Answer: c) 2hrs 40 min

Explanation:

Rate of working of Computer X is = 240 files/ (4 × 60min)

= 1 file / min

Rate of working of Computer Y is = 240files/ (8×60min)

= 0.5 file/min

The combined rate for computer X & Y is = 1 + 0.5 = 1.5 file/ mins.

Therefore, time taken to process 240 files is = 240/1.5

= 160mins

= 2hrs 40mins
