Answer:
96 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Tap A= 24 minutes
Tap B = 32 minutes
Drain= 16 minutes
Time taken by tap A to fill the tub in 1 minute= 1/24
Time taken by tap B to fill the tub in 1 minute= 1/32
Time taken drain to empty the tub in 1 minute= 1/16
Therefore, time taken by all the three to fill the tub in 1 minute= 1/24 + 1/32 - 1/16( LCM= 96)
= 4+3-6/96
=7-6/96
=1/96
=1÷1/96
=96 minutes
