A leak in the bottom can empty a tank in 25 hours. A tap can admits 80 liters/ minute. When both the taps are opened, tank is emptied in 45 hours. Find the capacity of the tank.
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
B's efficiency = 9 - 5 = 4 l/h
B fills the tank in = \(\frac{225}{4}\) × 60 = 3375 minutes
Total capacity of tank = 3375 × 80 = 270000 ltr
