Nature of Pipe : Inlet: A pipe connected with a tank or reservoir for filling is called as inlet Outlet: A pipe connected with a tank and used for empties it is called outlet. Concept: If a pipe can fill a tank in x hours, then the part filled in 1 hour = 1/x If a pipe can fill a tank in x hours and another pipe can empty the full tank in y hours, then the net part filled in 1 hour, when both the pipes are opened: (1/x1/y) Time taken to fill the tank, when both the pipes are opened: (x×y / yx) If a pipe can fill a tank in x hours and another fill the same tank in y hours, then the net part filled in 1 hr, when both pipes are opened: (1/x+1/y) So time to fill the tank will be: [x×y/(x+y)] If a pipe fills a tank in x hrs and another fills the same tank in y hrs, but a third empties the full tank in z hrs and all of them are opened together, the net part filled in 1 hr: (1/x+1/y1/z) So time taken to fill the tank: xyz/(yz+xzxy) Practice questions: 1). Two pipes A & B can fill a tank in 36 hours and 45 hours respectively. If both the pipes are open simultaneously. How much times will be taken to fill the tank? A) 15 hour B) 25 hour C) 20 hour D) 30 hour E) None of these 2) If A & B two pipes can fill a tank in 10 hour, when A pipe can fill a tank in 6 hour alone ,then in how much time will be taken to fill/empty the tank when pipe B open alone ? A) Filled in 20 hr B) Empty in 15 hr C) Empty in 20 hr D) Filled in 15 hr E) None of these 3) Pipe A and B can fill a tank in 10 hour and 12 hour respectively but pipe C can empty the same tank in 15 hour, In how much time it will take fill the tank when the three pipes are opened together? A) 8.5 hour B) 10 hour C) 12 hour D) 15 hour E) None of these 4) Two pipes A & B fill an empty tank in 40 minutes and 60 minutes respectively, If both pipes are open simultaneously after how much time should A be closed so that tank is filled in 36 minutes? A) 36 min B) 20 min C) 25 min D) 16 min E) None of these. 5) Three taps A,B and C together can fill an empty tank in 4 hours, After 1hour , C is closed and the tank is filled in 6 more hours. Find the time in which C alone can fill the empty tank? A) 18 hour B) 10 hour C) 12 hour D) 15 hour E) None of these. 6) Two pipe p1 and p2 can fill a tank in 40 minutes and 60 minutes

If a pipe can fill a tank in x hours and another fill the same tank in y hours,then the net part filled in 1 hr, when both pipes are opened: (1/x+1/y)So time to fill the tank will be: [x×y/(x+y)]
If a pipe fills a tank in x hrs and another fills the same tank in y hrs, but athird empties the full tank in z hrs and all of them are opened together, thenet part filled in 1 hr: (1/x+1/y1/z)So time taken to fill the tank: xyz/(yz+xzxy)
