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 Correct Answer Statement I and II together is sufficient

Let the total work = 60 units

From I

Efficiency of A + B working together = 60/12 = 5

From II

Efficiency of C + B working together = 60/10 = 6

Efficiency of B = 6 × (1/3) = 2

Efficiency of A = 5 – 2 = 3

We know the ratio of efficiency, we can calculate the time taken by pipe B to fill the remaining tank

Question can be answered using statement I and II together
