Given below are three quantities named A, B and C. Based on the given information; you have to determine the relationship between the two quantities. You should use the given data and your knowledge of Mathematics to choose between the possible answers. The options represent the relations between these three quantities A) > B) < C) = D) ≤ E) ≥ Two pipes P and Q can fill an empty tank in 20 minutes and 30 minutes respectively. Quantity A: If both pipes are opened simultaneously, then after what certain time P should be closed so that further time after which the tank is filled in 15 minutes? Quantity B: If both are opened and P is closed after 8 minutes, how much further time would it take for Q to fill the bucket? Quantity C: Pipe A and B can fill a tank in 15 minutes and 10 minutes respectively. Pipe C can empty the tank in 5 minutes. Pipe A and B are opened simultaneously and after the 4-minute pipe, C is also opened. In what time the tank will be emptied?
5 taps are connected to a tank among which 3 taps (A, B and C) are inlet taps and 2 taps (P and Q) are outlet taps. A, B and C can fill the tank in 24 minutes, 30 minutes and 36 minutes respectively while taps P and Q can empty the tanks in 15 minutes and 45 minutes respectively. If tap B is opened after 5 minutes and tap P is opened 5 minutes after tap B, find the time taken to fill the tank completely.
A Time taken by pipe P and Q to fill the tank is 120/23 minutes. Time taken by drain pipe S to empty the tank is 12 minutes more than pipe P to fill the tank. Time taken by pipe Q is 15 minutes. Ratio of time taken by R to fill up the tank and by pipe Q is 4 : 5. What is total time taken to fill the whole tank when all the pipes are open? 
Amar and Baron are given a six-shot pistol that has only one bullet in its cylinder. Both of them fire a slot one after the other. A shot can be a black shot or a lethal shot. The one, who fires a lethal shot, is the winner. After each shot, the cylinder of the pistol is shuffled so that the other person has a fair chance of firing a lethal shot. It is also known that Amar had the opportunity to fire the first shot. What is the probability that Baron wins the game?
(121)a + (121)b + (121)c = 77, if a, b and c are three consecutive numbers, what is the value of (121)a + c?
Time taken by pipe A and pipe B to fill up the cistern is 12 minutes whereas time taken by pipe C to empty the whole cistern is twice that of time taken by A and B together to fill the tank and ratio of time taken by pipe A and B to fill up the tank when operating alone is 2 : 3. If pipe A and B are alternatively opened every 6 minutes and C is opened with pipe B but closed when pipe A is opened then calculate total time taken to fill up the whole cistern. 
S1: Different countries show different pattern of growth.
P: Many others have a high birth rate with a low death rate.
Q: Some have a high birth rate and still have a high death rate.
R: The developing countries show the most rapid growth rate.
S: Some others like the European nations, have a low birth rate and a low death rate.
S6: Compared to this in Europe the growth rate is low.

Five pipes P, Q, R, S, and T can fill a tank in 60 minutes, 20 minutes, 30 minutes, 8 minutes, 32 minutes respectively. Out of these five pipes, two have now been converted into emptying pipes such that their efficiency remains the same. When only one of the filling pipes and one of the emptying pipes operate, the tank can be filled in 60 minutes while another combination of emptying and filling pipe empties it in 8/45th of the time taken by the previous combination to fill the tank. Which pipes are converted into emptying pipes?
