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

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?
Two pipes are connected to tank 1 and one pipe connects tank 1 and tank 2 at the bottom of both tanks. At first pipe A and pipe B will filling tank 1 and then pipe C would be opened to fill tank 2. Capacity of tank 1 is twice capacity of tank 2. Pipe C takes 8 minutes to fill the whole tank 2 wherein discharging capacity of pipe C is 62.5 liters per minute. Ratio of time taken by pipe A and B to fill the tank when operating alone is 4 : 5 then find approximate discharging capacity of pipe A and B in liters/ minute if both the pipes discharge equal amount of water in tank. Time taken by pipe A and B to fill the tank 1 is 20/ 3 minutes
A tank has an inlet pipe and an outlet pipe. If the outlet pipe is closed then the inlet pipe fills the empty tank in 8 hours. If the outlet pipe is open then the inlet pipe fills the empty tank in 10 hours. If only the outlet pipe is open then in how many hours the full tank becomes half-full?
Thomas filled the tank through three pipes X, Y and Z. Pipe X is kept open in continuation, pipe Y kept open for first 20 minutes and then he closed it. 5 minutes after pipe B was closed, Pipe C is opened and was kept open till the tank was full. Together all the 3 pipes X, Y and Z take 'a' minutes to fill the tank. Each pipe fills an equal share of the tank. also, it is known that if pipe X and Y are kept open throughout, the tank would be completely fill in 'a' minutes. How long will it take C alone to fill the tank?  
There are two pipes T and V which can empty the tank and one pipe S can fill the tank. Pipe S can fill the tank in 5 hours. Pipe T can empty half of the tank in 5 hours. Pipe S is opened for 1 hour and 15 min then Pipe T and Pipe V are also opened. Then the (remaining) tank gets filled in 10 hours. In what time pipe V can empty the 1/4th filled tank?
A tank has an optional adjustable outlet pipe that can be attached to the tank at any height we want. This outlet pipe drains water from the tank at a constant rate, while the tank is being filled using another inlet pipe at a constant rate. If the outlet, pipe is attached at half the height of the tank, the tank, which is initially empty gets filled in 18 hours. If the outlet pipe is attached at height equal to two third height of the tank, the tank, which is initially empty, is filled in 16 hours. In how many hours will the tank, which is initially empty, be completely filled if the outlet pipe is not attached to the tank?
The question below is followed by three statements I, II, and III. You have to determine whether the data given is sufficient for answering the question. You should use the data and your knowledge of mathematics to choose the best possible answer. A water tank is to be filled. Pipe A is opened for 10 minutes and then closed. After that pipe, B is opened and the remaining tank is filled by Pipe B alone. In how much time pipe B filled the remaining tank working alone? I. Pipe A and B together can fill a tank in 12 minutes. II. Pipe B, C, can fill a tank in 10 minutes. The ratio of their efficiency is 1 : 2 III. Pipe D and C can fill a tank in 12 minutes
Pipes X and Y are the filling pipes while Z is an empty pipe. X, Y can fill the given empty tank In 45 and 54 minutes respectively. However, pipe Z can empty in 90 minutes. If all the pipes are opened Together for 10 minutes after that pipe is A and B is blocked and Now, only pipe Z is opened. Find the total time taken by pipe Z to empty the filled tank?
