P, Q, R can complete the work in 38 days.
Q and R can complete the work in 76 days.
Concept:
If A and B together can complete a job in 'd' days and B alone can complete the same job in 'f' days, then A alone can complete the job in (d × f) / (f - d) days.
Calculation:
Time taken by P alone to complete the work = (38 × 76)/(76 - 38)
Hence, P alone can complete the work in 76 days.
