A tank with capacity T liters is empty. If water flows into the tank from pipe X at the rate of x liters per minute and water is pumped out by Y at the rate of y liters per minute and x > y, then how many minutes will the tank be filled?

(x - y) 60 T minutes
(T - x) minutes
$$\frac{{\text{T}}}{{{\text{x}} - {\text{y}}}}$$ minutes
$$\frac{{\text{T}}}{{{\text{y}} - {\text{x}}}}$$ minutes

Answer: Option 3

Net volume filled in 1 minute = (x - y) liters ∴ The tank will be filled in = $$\frac{{\text{T}}}{{\left( {x - y} \right)}}$$ minutes
