Description : Faucet A basically used as inlet pipe and Faucet B is used as outlet pipe. Faucet A and B both are opened simultaneously, all the time. When Faucet A fills the tank and Faucet B empty the tank, it will take thrice the ... efficiency of Faucet A and Faucet B respectively? a) 1:2 b) 2:1 c) 1:3 d) 3:1
Last Answer : B Efficiency when both pipes used to fill = A + B And efficiency when Faucet A is used to fill and Faucet B is used to empty the tank = A-B So (A+B)/(A-B)=3/1 A/B+1/(A/B-1)=3/1 A/B+1=3(A/B-1) 3A/B-A/B=4 2A/B=4 A/B=2 Thus, the ratio of efficiency of Faucet A and B =2:1
Description : Two pumps P & Q can fill a tank in 12 mins and 15 mins respectively while a third pipe R can empty the full tank in 6 mins. P & Q kept open for 5 mins in the beginning and then R is also opened. In what time is tank emptied? A) 30mins B) 35mins C) 40mins D) 45 mins
Last Answer : D Part filled in 5 min = 5(1/12 +1/15) = 5*9/60 = ¾ Part emptied in 1 min when all the pumps are opened, = 1/6 – (1/12 + 1/15) = 1/6 – 3/20 = 1/60 Now 1/60 is part emptied in 1 min Therefore ¾ part will be emptied in 60 * ¾ = 45 mins
Description : Two taps P and Q can separately fill a tank in 120mins and 150 mins respectively. There is a 3rd tap in the bottom of the tank to empty it. If all of the 3 taps are simultaneously opened, then the tank is full ... . In how much time the 3rd pipe alone can empty the tank? A) 100 B) 200 C) 300 D) 400
Last Answer : B Work done by the 3 tap in 1 min = 1/100 – ( 1/120 + 1/150) = 1/100 – (5+4/600) =1/100 – 9/600 =6-9/600 = - 3/600 = - 1/200(negative signs mean empting) Therefore the 3rd tap alone can empty the tank in 200 mins
Description : Two taps A and B are opened together to fill a tank. Both the taps fill the tank in time x If B separately took 25 minutes more time than x to fill the tank and B took 49 minutes more time than x ... the tank, then find out the value of x? A) 48 minutes B) 24 minutes C) 54 minutes D) 35 minutes
Last Answer : D Time is taken to fill the tank by both taps x = √a*b x = √25*49 => 5*7 => 35

Last Answer : A Let x is the time when B is closed X(1/20+1/40)+14/20=1 X=4 hours
Description : Three pumps, M, N and O are opened to fill a tank such that M and N can fill the tank alone in 18 min. and 23 min. respectively and O can empty it in 15 min. After 3 minutes the emptying pipe is closed. In how many minutes the tank will be full in this way? A) 20 B) 25 C) 18 D) 12
Last Answer : D Let the tank full in x minutes, then M and N opened for x minutes and O for 3 minutes. (1/18 + 1/23)*x – (1/15)*3 = 1 (23+18/414)X=1+1/5 Solve, x = 12
Description : Two taps M and N can alone fill a tank in 80 minutes and 120 minutes respectively. But due to a leakage of tank, it took 12 more minutes to fill the tank. In how many hours, the leak can alone empty the full tank? A) 240 B) 230 C) 248 D) 256
Last Answer : A A and B can fill tank in (1/80 + 1/120) = 1/48 so 48minutes But it took 12 more minutes, this means the tank got full in 48+12= 60 minutes So (1/80 + 1/120 – 1/x) = 1/60 1/X=1/80+1/120-1/60 Solve, x = 240
Description : A tank is 1/4th full. Two pipes which fill the tank in 30minutes and 40 minutes respectively are opened simultaneously. After 10 minutes, a third pipe which empties the full tank in 60 minutes is also opened. In how many minutes the tank will be full? A) 14 B) 12 C) 15 D) 17
Last Answer : A Since 1/4th is already filled, 3/4th is to filled now. (1/30 + 1/40)*(10+x) – (1/60)*x = ¾ 7/120(10+x)-x/60=3/4 7x-2x/120=3/4-7/12 5x/120=1/6 30x=120 X=4 So total 10+4=14minutes

Last Answer : D 1/P + 1/Q + 1/R = 1/12 Now given that first all open for 2hours, then R closed and P+Q completes in 14 hours, so (1/P + 1/Q + 1/R) *2 + (1/P + 1/Q)*14 = 1 Put 1/P + 1/Q = 1/12 – 1/R (1/12 – 1/R + 1/R) *2 + (1/12 – 1/R)*14 = 1 1/6+ 14/12 – 14/R = 1 Solve, R = 42
Description : A cistern is filled in 15 hours by three pipes P, Q and R. The pipe R is thrice as fast as Q and Q is thrice as fast as P. How much time will pipe P alone take to fill the tank? A) 120 hrs B) 195 hrs C) 135 hrs D) Cannot be determined
Last Answer : B Suppose pipe P alone takes x hours to fill the tank. Then, pipes Q and R will take x/3 and x/9hours respectively to fill the tank. 1/x + 3/x + 9/x = 1/15 13/x = 1/15 => x = 195 hrs.
