Pipe A can fill in 20 minutes and Pipe B in 30 mins
and Pipe C can
empty the same in 40 mins.If all of them work
together, find the time
taken to fill the tank

Answer Posted / vishnu gupthan nair

Volume = Gallons/Minute x Minutes ==> V = Rt
V = 20a = 30b = 40c

Express a and b in terms of c:

a = 2c

b = 4c/3

With all pipes open, the fill rate becomes:

R = a+b-c

R = 2c+4c/3-c

R = 7c/3

Time required is Volume / Fill Rate:

t = V/R

t = 40c/(7c/3)

t = 120/7

t = 17.14 minutes
