Two taps A and B can fill an overhead tank in 10 hours and 15 hours respectively. Both the taps are opened for 4 hours and they B is turned off. How much time will A take to fill the remaining tank?

योग

उत्तर

Time taken by A to fill a tank = 10 hours

Quantity of tank filled by A in 1 hour = `1/10` units.

SImilarly, Quantity o tank filled by B in 1 hour = `1/15` units

Now, Quantity of tank filled by A and B together, in 1 hour = units `1/10 + 1/15 = 1/6` units.

Hence, Quantity of tank filled by A and B together, in 4 hours = `4 xx 1/6 = 2/3` units.

Quantity of tank left to be filled = `1 - 2/3 = 1/3`units.

Therefore, time taken by A to fill `1/3` units of tank = `1/3 * (10)`

`3 1/3` hours.
