A tank is filled by two pipes in 18 min and 20 min respectively, and drained by a third pipe in 32 min. How long to fill the tank if all operate together?
Answer:
13.46
Step-by-step solution: 1. Filling rates: 1/18 + 1/20. 2. Draining rate: 1/32. 3. Net rate = 1/18 + 1/20 - 1/32 = 0.0743 tank/min. 4. Time = 1 / net rate = 13.46 minutes.

A tank is filled by two pipes in 17 min and 26 min respectively, and drained by a third pipe in 33 min. How long to fill the tank if all operate together?
Answer:
14.93
Step-by-step solution: 1. Filling rates: 1/17 + 1/26. 2. Draining rate: 1/33. 3. Net rate = 1/17 + 1/26 - 1/33 = 0.0670 tank/min. 4. Time = 1 / net rate = 14.93 minutes.
