      Question

      Pipe 'A' alone takes 30 minutes to fill half of the

      tank. Pipe 'B' is twice as efficient as pipe 'A'. Find the percentage of the tank filled by both in 10 minutes.
      A 50% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 75% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 80% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 100% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Full tank time = 30 × 2 = 60 minutes A’s efficiency = x units/min Tank capacity = 60x units B’s efficiency = 2x units/min Work in 10 minutes = (x + 2x) × 10 = 30x units Percentage = (30x / 60x) × 100 = 50%
