A tank is filled by two pipes in 20 min and 21 min respectively, and drained by a third pipe in 30 min. How long to fill the tank if all operate together?
Answer:
15.56
Step-by-step solution: 1. Filling rates: 1/20 + 1/21. 2. Draining rate: 1/30. 3. Net rate = 1/20 + 1/21 - 1/30 = 0.0643 tank/min. 4. Time = 1 / net rate = 15.56 minutes.

A tank is filled by two pipes in 18 min and 20 min respectively, and drained by a third pipe in 30 min. How long to fill the tank if all operate together?
Answer:
13.85
Step-by-step solution: 1. Filling rates: 1/18 + 1/20. 2. Draining rate: 1/30. 3. Net rate = 1/18 + 1/20 - 1/30 = 0.0722 tank/min. 4. Time = 1 / net rate = 13.85 minutes.
