A water tank has two taps ( Tap-1 and Tap-2) : Tap-1 can fill a tank in 8 hours and Tap-2 can empty the tank in 16 hours . How long will they take to fill the tank if both taps are opened simultaneously but Tap -2 is closed after 8 hours?

Correct Answer: 12
In 1 hr, the tank is filled = 1/8 - 1/16 = 1/16 In 8 hrs " " " " = 8/16 = 1/2 Now, 1/8 part is filled by tap - 1 in 1 hour 1/2 part is filled by tap - 1 in = 8/2 = 4 hrs So, the required time = 8 + 4 = 12 hrs

A water tank has two taps (Tap1 -Tap2) . Tap -1 can fill a tank in 8 hours and Tap- 2 can empty the tank in 16 hours. How long will they take to fill the tank if both taps are opened simultaneously but tap-2 is closed after 8 hours?

In a public bathroom there are n taps 1,2,3...n. Tap1 and Tap2 take equal time to fill the tank while Tap3 takes half the time taken by Tap2 and Tap4 takes half the time taken by Tap3. Similarly each next number of tap takes half the time taken by previous number of Tap i.e, K-th Tap takes half the time taken by (K-1)th Tap.If the 10th tap takes 2 hours to fill the tank alone then what is the ratio of efficiency of 8th tap and 12th tap, respectively?

Three taps I, J and K can fill a tank in 20,30and 40 minutes respectively. All the taps are opened simultaneously and after 5 minutes tap A was closed and then after 6 minutes tab B was closed .At the moment a leak developed which can empty the full tank in 70 minutes. What is the total time taken for the completely full ?

Two pipes X and Y can fill an empty tank in 16 hours and 20 hours respectively. Pipe Z alone can empty the completely filled tank in 25 hours. Firstly both pipes X and Y are opened and after 6 hours pipe Z is also opened. What will be the total time (in hours) taken to completely fill the tank?

Two pipes P and Q can fill an empty tank in 25 hours and 20 hours respectively. Pipe R alone can empty the completely filled tank in 50 hours.

A water tank can be filled by a tap in 30 minutes and another tap can fill it in 60 minutes. If both taps are kept open for 5 minutes and then the first tap is closed, how long will it take foe the tank to be filled ?

Taps X and Y can fill a tank in 30 and 40 minutes respectively.Tap Z can empty the filled tank in 60 minutes.If all the three taps are kept open for one minute each,how much time will the taps take to fill the tank?

A tank has a leak which would empty the completely filled tank in 10 hours. If the tank is full of water and a tap is opened which admits 4 litres of water per minute in the tank , the leak takes 15 hours to empty the tank. How many litres of water does the tank hold?

Two taps A and B can fill a tank in 5 hours and 20 hours respectively. If both the taps are open then due to a leakage, it took 30 minutes more to fill the tank. If the tank is full, how long will it take for the leakage alone to empty the tank ?
