Question
Tap A is 200% more efficient than tap B. Both the taps
together can fill the tank in 6 hours. Find the time taken by tap C, which is 100% more efficient than tap B, to fill the tank alone.Solution
Let, time taken by tap B to fill the tank be x hours,
So, time taken by tap A to fill the tank = x/3 hours According to question,
1/x + 1/(x/3) = 1/6
1/x + 3/x = 1/6
x = 24 So, time taken by tap C to fill the tank = 24/2 = 12 hours
