Question
Two pipes A and B can fill a tank in 12 min., and 16
min, respectively. If both the pipes are opened simultaneously, after how much time A should be closed so that the tank is full in 12 minutes?Solution
Let A be closed after x minutes. Then, Part filled by (A + B) in x min. + part filled by B in (12 – x) min. = 1 x (1/12 + 1/16 ) + (12 – x ) × 1/16 = 1 ⟹ (7 x)/48 + (12 - x)/16 = 1 ⟹ (7 x)/48 + 3/4 - x/16 = 1 ⟹ (4 x)/48 = 1/4 ∴ x = 3 ∴ Hence, A must be closed after 3 minutes.
