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 : Pipe A can fill a water tank in 8 hours, Pipe B can fill the same tank in 12 hours and Pipe C can empty the tank in 24 hours.

Last Answer : C A tube can fill the half tank in 9hrs Now another similar tube opened 1/18+1/18 = 2/18 = 1/9 Remaining half tank filled in 4.5hrs Total time = 9+4.5 =13.5 = 13hrs 30min

Description : A tube can fill a cistern in 18hrs.After half the cistern is filled, three more similar tubes are opened. What is the total time taken to fill the cistern completely ? A) 9hrs 52min B) 10hrs 15 min C) 9hrs 45 min D) 10hrs 30min

Last Answer : Time taken to fill half of the cistern = 18/2 = 9 hrs After half the cistern is filled , three more similar tubes are opened. We know that one tube can in 18 hrs can fill = V litres(i.e. fully fill a cistern) ... V/2 will be 2 hrs 15 min Total time = 9 hrs + 2 hrs + 15 min = 11 hrs 15 min
