open parentheses fraction numerator No space of space days space straight a space person space worked over denominator No space of space days space straight a space person space can space space complete space straight a space work end fraction space plus space fraction numerator No space of space days space straight a space person space worked over denominator No space of space days space straight a space person space can space complete space straight a space work end fraction plus... equals space 1 close parentheses 
Now,
rightwards double arrow space space 3 over 8 plus 3 over 12 plus 3 over 16 plus 3 over straight x space equals space 1
rightwards double arrow space space 1 over straight x space equals space 1 third minus 1 over 8 minus 1 over 12 minus 1 over 16
equals space fraction numerator 16 minus 6 minus 4 minus 3 over denominator 48 end fraction space equals space 1 over 16
therefore space space space straight x space equals space 16

Ratio of wages = 1 over 8 space colon thin space 1 over 12 space colon space 1 over 16 space colon space 1 over 16 space equals space 6 space colon space 4 colon space 3 space colon space 3
Sum of ratios = 6 + 4 + 3 + 3 = 16
∴ Fourth person's share = 3 over 16 cross times 1200 space equals space ₹ space 225
