15. A tank has three pipes, two of which can fill the
tank in 9 minutes and 12 minutes when opened

together, how many minutes will it take for an
empty tank to be filled?​

Answer:

How much time a tank would take to be filled by 3 pipes?

So when all 3 pipes work together, total inflow of water into the cistern per minute is 2+(8/9)+(1/2)=61/18 liters. Time needed to fill 122 liters = 122/(61/18) = (122*18)/61 = 2*18 = 36 minutes.
