Last Answer : (A+B+C) - (A+B) (A+B+C) =1/6 and (A+B+C) in 2hrs=2/6 and remaining part 1-2/6=2/3. So (A+B) in 7 hrs is 2/ (3*7) =2/21. 1/6-2/21=1/14 so answer is 14. Answer: b)

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
