      Question

      A2 type ‘P’ pipes can fill

      a tank in 325 hours, while B2 type ‘Q’ pipes can fill the same tank in 468 hours. (6A × 5B) type ‘P’ pipes can fill the same tank in how many hours? (Efficiency of a type P and a type Q pipe is same)
      A 10 hrs Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 6 hrs Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 13 hrs Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 14 hrs Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      A2 × 325 = B2 × 468
      A2/B2 = 468/325
      A2/B2 = 36/25
      A/B = 6/5
      A = 6B/5
      (6A × 5B) type 'P' pipes = 6 × 6B/5 × 5B = 36B2
      Required time = (B2 × 468)/(36 × B2) = 13 hrs
