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:

A water tanker can be filled by 2 pipes A & B separately in 16 min & 32 min respectively. The outlet of the tanker is partially open and it can empty the full tanker completely in 1 hour 4 min. Pipes A & B were opened simultaneously for 9 min to fill the tanker but the partially open outlet was not closed. After 9 min the pipes A & B were closed and the tanker then went to Mohan's house, 6 km away to deliver water. If the tanker moved at a constant speed of 36 km/hr, approximately what percentage of the tanker was full, when it reached Mohan's house? 
Three taps A, B & C can fill the swimming pool with uniform flow. If taps A & B are left open simultaneously, it can fill the swimming pool in the same time in which tap C alone can fill the swimming pool. However, tap B fills the pool 10 hours faster as compared to tap A and 8 hours slower as compared to tap C. In how much time tap A can fill the entire pool?
A tanker has a leakage which would empty the completely filled tanker in 10 hours. If the tanker is full and a pipe is opened which admit 4 liters of water per minute in the tanker, then the leakage takes 15 hours to empty the tanker. Find how many liters of water does the tanker hold?
In the following question, two statements are numbered as A and B. On solving these statements, we get quantities A and B respectively. Solve both quantities and choose the correct option. Quantity A: Pipe A takes thrice the time taken by Pipe B to fill a tank. Together they can fill the tank in 15 hours, tank A and B is opened together for 4 hours and then Pipe A is closed and after 2 more hours Pipe B is closed and an outlet Pipe C is opened which when working alone can empty the tank in 10 hours. Calculate the time taken by C to empty the tank. Quantity B: A pipe A can fill the tank in 10 hours another pipe B can fill the tank in 15 hours and with the help of third pipe C they can fill the tank in 5 hours. Pipe A is opened for 4 hours then it is closed, pipe B is closed 3 hours before filling of tank and tank C is opened the whole time. Calculate the time taken to fill the tank

In the following question, two quantities I and II are given. Compare both quantities and choose the correct option and give the answer accordingly. Quantity I: Two taps A and B can fill a tank in 5 hours and 20 hours respectively. If both the taps are open then due to leakage, it took 30 minutes more to fill the tank. If the tank is full, how long will it take for the leakage alone to empty the tank? Quantity II: A tank is filled in 5 hours by three pipes A, B and C. The pipe C is twice as fast as B and B is twice fast as A. How much time will pipe A alone take to fill the tank?

Given below are quantities named A,B and C. Based on the given information, you have to determine the relation between the quantities. You should use the given data and your knowledge of mathematics to choose among the possible answer. Quantity A: Tap1 and Tap2 can fill the tank in 16 hours and 25 hours respectively. Both the taps opened together. After some time Tap 1 is closed and after that the tank is filled in 12 hours. In how many hour Tap 1 and 2 work together? Quantity B: Three taps 1, 2, 3 can fill a cistern in 10,14,18 hours respectively. If tap 1 is kept open all the time and tap 2 and 3 is opened alternatively for an hour then find in how many hours the tank will be filled? Quantity C: Two taps 1 and 2 are such that tap 1 fills the tank in 10 hours and tap2 empties it in 20 hours. If tap 1 is opened first and after 5 hours tap 1 is closed and tap 2 is opened, then the tank emptied in x hours and find the value of x?
