A tank is filled by two pipes in 16 min and 24 min respectively, and drained by a third pipe in 32 min. How long to fill the tank if all operate together?
Answer:
13.71
Step-by-step solution: 1. Filling rates: 1/16 + 1/24. 2. Draining rate: 1/32. 3. Net rate = 1/16 + 1/24 - 1/32 = 0.0729 tank/min. 4. Time = 1 / net rate = 13.71 minutes.

A tank is filled by two pipes in 16 min and 22 min respectively, and drained by a third pipe in 30 min. How long to fill the tank if all operate together?
Answer:
13.4
Step-by-step solution: 1. Filling rates: 1/16 + 1/22. 2. Draining rate: 1/30. 3. Net rate = 1/16 + 1/22 - 1/30 = 0.0746 tank/min. 4. Time = 1 / net rate = 13.4 minutes.
