Q:
A) 4 hrs 15 min | B) 3 hrs 24 min |
C) 4 hrs 51 min | D) 3 hrs 45 min |
Answer: D) 3 hrs 45 min
Explanation:
Explanation:
Time taken by one tap to fill half of the tank = 3 hrs.
Part filled by the taps in 1 hour = 4 x 1/6 = 2/3
Remaining part = 1 - 1/2 = 1/2
2/3 : 1/2 :: 1 : p
p = 1/2 x 1 x 3/2 = 3/4 hrs. i.e., 45 min
So, total time taken = 3 hrs 45 min.
