A cistern has one inlet, L and one inlet, M. L takes 5 hours to fill the empty tank, when M is not open and M takes 8 hours to empty the full tank, if the tank is two fifth full, how much time will it take to fill the tank completely when both L and M are opened simultaneously? (in hours)

A sump is filled by three tankers with uniform flow. The first two tankers operating simultaneously fill the sump in the same time during which the sump is filled by the third tanker alone. The second tanker fills the sump 5 hours faster than the first tanker and 4 hours slower than the third tanker. The time required by the first tanker is:

P, Q and R are channels which discharge solutions A,B and C respectively in a tank. When the tank is empty and all the three channels are opened what is the proportion of the solution C in the tank after 3 minutes, if the channels P, Q and R can fill the tank from empty to full in 30 minutes and 20 minutes and 10 minutes respectively when they are opened one at a time.

Out of three pipes the first two can fill an empty tank in 9 and 18 hours, respectively while the third can drain the filled tank in 15 hours. If all the three pipes are opened when the tank is empty, after how many hours will the tank be full?

A tap can fill a tank in 50 minutes. If the tank has a leakage which alone is capable of emptying the tank in 2.5 hours, the tank will now be filled in

A tap can fill a tank in 20 minutes. If a leakage is capable of emptying the tank in 60 minutes, the tank will be filled in

Raghu's tanker can fill a cistern in 4 hours. After half the cistern is filled, three more similar tankers are opened. What is the total time taken to fillthe cistern completely?

A water tank has two holes. The 1st hole alone makes the tank empty in 3 min and 2nd hole alone makes the tank empty in 5 min. If water leaks out at a constant rate, how long in minutes does it take if both the holes together empty the tank?

Two pipes, when working one at a time can fill a cistern in 2 hrs and 3 hrs, respectively while a third pipe can drain the cistern empty in 6 hrs. All the three pipes were opened together when the cistern was 1/6 full. How long will it take for the cistern to be completely full?
