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 : 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

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.

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

A dumper is normally filled in 18 hours but takes 6 hours longer to fill because of a leak in the bottom of the dumper. If the dumper is full the leak will empty it in how many hours? A) 76 hours B) 78 hours C) 72 hours D) 74 hours

Description : A dumper is normally filled in 18 hours but takes 6 hours longer to fill because of a leak in the bottom of the dumper. If the dumper is full the leak will empty it in how many hours? A) 76 hours B) 78 hours C) 72 hours D) 74 hours

Last Answer : C Work done by leak in 1 hr=(1/18-1/24) =>4-3/72 =>1/72 Leak will empty the dumper in 72 hours

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.

Two tap can fill a dumper in 7 hrs and 8 hrs respectively. The taps are opened simultaneously and it is found that due to leakage in the bottom it took 16 mins more to fill the dumper. When the dumper is full, in what time will the leak empty it? A) 56hrs B) 56hrs C) 46hrs D) 36hrs

Description : Two tap can fill a dumper in 7 hrs and 8 hrs respectively. The taps are opened simultaneously and it is found that due to leakage in the bottom it took 16 mins more to fill the dumper. When the dumper is full, in what time will the leak empty it? A) 56hrs B) 56hrs C) 46hrs D) 36hrs

Last Answer : A Work done by 2 taps in 1 hr = (1/7 + 1/8) = 15/56 Time taken by these taps to fill the dumper = 56/15 hrs =3 hrs 44 mins Due to leakage, time taken = 3 hrs +44mins+16 mins =4hrs Work done by (2 ... the leak in 1 hr = (15/56 - ¼) =15 - 4/56 =1/56 Leak will empty the full cistern in 56 hrs.

An electric pump can fill a cistern in 6 hrs. Because of a leak in the cistern it took 7 hrs to fill the cistern. If the cistern is full, how much time will the leak take to empty it? A) 42hrs B) 24hrs C) 32hrs D) 16hrs

Description : An electric pump can fill a cistern in 6 hrs. Because of a leak in the cistern it took 7 hrs to fill the cistern. If the cistern is full, how much time will the leak take to empty it? A) 42hrs B) 24hrs C) 32hrs D) 16hrs

Last Answer : A Work done by the leak in 1 hr = [1/6 – 1/7] = 7-6/42 =1/42 Therefore the leak will empty the cistern in 42 hrs.

Two filling tap can fill a dumper in 14 and 28 min. respectively and when the waste tap is open, they can together fill it in 35 min. The waste pipe can empty the full dumper in – A) 152/9 hrs. B) 137/7 hrs. C) 60/9 hrs. D) 140/11 hrs.
