Let the total time required be 12T (LCM of 2, 3 and 4 for the ease of calculation)
No. of pages read by Albela in 12T minutes at 2 minute per page = 6T
No. of pages read by Bob in 12T minutes at 3 minute per page = 4T
No. of pages read by Chulbul in 12T minutes at 4 minute per page = 3T
Total no. of pages read by all three of them = (6T + 4T + 3T) = 13T
According to the question, total pages = 78
So, 13T = 78 Or, T = 6
Therefore, no. of pages read by Bob = 4T = 24
Hence, option A is the correct answer
