A tank can be filled in 10 hours. After a leak in its bottom, it takes 12 hours to fill the tank. Find the time taken by the leak to empty the full tank? |
50 hours 55 hours 60 hours 65 hours |
60 hours |
The following chart has to be made first: Efficiency without leak = 6 Efficiency of leakage = -1 Efficiency after leak = 6 - 1 = 5 Thus, it takes 60 hours for a tank to get emptied: \(\frac{ 60}{1 }\) = 60 hours |
