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

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

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

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

Bucket A has twice the capacity as bucket B. It takes 120 turns for bucket A to fill the empty dumper. How many turns it will take for both the buckets A and B, having each turn together to fill the empty dumper. A) 40 B) 50 C) 70 D) 80

Description : Bucket A has twice the capacity as bucket B. It takes 120 turns for bucket A to fill the empty dumper. How many turns it will take for both the buckets A and B, having each turn together to fill the empty dumper. A) 40 B) 50 C) 70 D) 80

Last Answer : D Let capacity of A be x litres Then capacity of B = x/2 litres Capacity of the dumper = 120x litres Required number of turns = 120x/ x =x/2 = 2 (120x)/3x =2430x/3x =80.

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

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

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

Two faucet can separately fill a cistern 30minutes and 45 minutes respectively and when the waste faucet is open, they can together fill it in 54 minutes. The waste faucet can empty the full cistern in? A) 27 min B) 23 min C) 23 min D) 29 min

Description : Two faucet can separately fill a cistern 30minutes and 45 minutes respectively and when the waste faucet is open, they can together fill it in 54 minutes. The waste faucet can empty the full cistern in? A) 27 min B) 23 min C) 23 min D) 29 min 

Last Answer : A 1/30 + 1/45 - 1/x = 1/54 1/x=1/30+1/45-1/54 1/x=9+6-5/270 1/x=10/270 1/x=1/27 x = 27

Two pipe P & Q fill a tab in 5 hrs and 20 hrs respectively. If both the pipes are open then due to the leakage, it took 30mins more to fill the tab. If the tab is full, how long will it take for the leakage alone to empty the tank? A) 28 B) 24 C) 36 D) 12

Description : Two pipe P & Q fill a tab in 5 hrs and 20 hrs respectively. If both the pipes are open then due to the leakage, it took 30mins more to fill the tab. If the tab is full, how long will it take for the leakage alone to empty the tank? A) 28 B) 24 C) 36 D) 12

Last Answer : C Part filled by(P+Q) in 1 hr = 1/5 + 1/20 = ¼ So P & Q together can fill the tank in 4 hrs. Work done by the leak in 1 hr = 1 / 4 - 2/9 Leak will empty the tank in 36 hrs.

3 faucet A,B,C can fill a cistern from empty to full in 45mins, 35mins, and 25 mins respectively. When the cistern is empty all the 3 faucets are opened. A,B,c discharge chemical solutions A,B,C respectively. What is the proportion of solution C in the liquid in the tank after 5 mins? A) 63/143 B) 72/151 c) 67/173 D) 81/167

Description : 3 faucet A,B,C can fill a cistern from empty to full in 45mins, 35mins, and 25 mins respectively. When the cistern is empty all the 3 faucets are opened. A,B,c discharge chemical solutions A,B,C respectively. What is ... the liquid in the tank after 5 mins? A) 63/143 B) 72/151 c) 67/173 D) 81/167

Last Answer : A Part filled by (A+B+C) in 5 mins = 5(1/45 +1/35 + 1/25) = 5 (35+45+63/1575) = 143/315 Part filled by c in 5 mins = 5/25 = 1/5 Required ratio = 1/5 * 315/143 =63/143.

A water cistern is two-fifth full. Tap A can fill a cistern in 20 mins and tap B can empty it in 12mins. If both the taps are open, how long will take to empty or fill the cistern completey? A) 10 mins B) 12mins C) 14mins D) 16 mins

Description : A water cistern is two-fifth full. Tap A can fill a cistern in 20 mins and tap B can empty it in 12mins. If both the taps are open, how long will take to empty or fill the cistern completey? A) 10 mins B) 12mins C) 14mins D) 16 mins

Last Answer : B Clearly tap B is faster than the Tap A and so, the cistern will be emptied Part to be emptied = 2/5 Part emptied by (A+B) in 1 min = (1/12 – 1/20) = 5-3/60 = 2/60 =>1/30 Therefore 1/30 : 2/5 :: 1;x x= 1*2/5 *30/1 = 12mins so the tank will be emptied in 12mins.
