A tank is filled by two pipes in 16 min and 26 min respectively, and drained by a third pipe in 34 min. How long to fill the tank if all operate together?
Answer:
13.98
Step-by-step solution: 1. Filling rates: 1/16 + 1/26. 2. Draining rate: 1/34. 3. Net rate = 1/16 + 1/26 - 1/34 = 0.0715 tank/min. 4. Time = 1 / net rate = 13.98 minutes.

A tank is filled by two pipes in 19 min and 20 min respectively, and drained by a third pipe in 33 min. How long to fill the tank if all operate together?
Answer:
13.83
Step-by-step solution: 1. Filling rates: 1/19 + 1/20. 2. Draining rate: 1/33. 3. Net rate = 1/19 + 1/20 - 1/33 = 0.0723 tank/min. 4. Time = 1 / net rate = 13.83 minutes.
